Suggested Budget for Rental to Become Buyers
- 35% goes to housing. That includes your mortgage or rent, maintenance, taxes, utilities and insurance. In other words, the cost of the place you’re living and the cost to actually live there.
- 15% to debt repayment. This is student loans, credit cards, personal loans and any other debt you’re carrying above and beyond your mortgage or auto loan.
- 15% to transportation. Here’s where those auto loan payments come in, along with gas, insurance, repairs, parking and tolls, and train or bus tickets.
- 10% in savings. All the money you’re putting away for your emergency cushion, retirement, college, and other goals factors in here. This is your down payment for that new home!
- 25% to all other living expenses . Consider a portion of this your play money, for entertainment, clothing gifts, eating out, and vacations. Some not-so-fun things, like groceries and healthcare expenses, also fall in here.
