Buying power
Mortgage payment calculator.
Adjust the numbers to estimate principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and other monthly costs.
Weekly rate benchmark
Current U.S. mortgage rates.
A trusted national baseline from Freddie Mac. Apply a benchmark to the calculator, then ask a lender for a personalized Texas quote based on credit, loan type, points, and property details.

National averages are not advertisements or loan offers and may differ from rates available near you. Rates are updated weekly. Source: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey.
PMI is estimated only when the down payment is below 20%; eligibility and cancellation depend on the loan. Enter a lender-provided rate for a closer estimate.
Planning estimate only—not a loan offer. Rate, taxes, insurance, PMI, and dues are editable assumptions, not live quotes. Closing costs, utilities, maintenance, and some loan-specific charges are not included.
Buyer financial guide
Understand the numbers before you make the move.
Clear, practical education for preparing to buy in Conroe, Montgomery County, and Greater Houston. Use these fundamentals to ask better questions of your lender, insurer, and real estate advisor.
Preapproval before touring
A strong preapproval clarifies your price range and shows sellers that a lender has reviewed your financial picture.
Plan cash to close
Your down payment is only one part. Budget for lender costs, title charges, prepaid taxes and insurance, inspections, and reserves.
Rate, APR, and points
The interest rate drives payment. APR reflects additional borrowing costs. Discount points trade more cash today for a potentially lower rate.
Estimate the full payment
Compare principal, interest, property tax, homeowners insurance, HOA dues, and possible mortgage insurance—not price alone.
Protect the decision
Inspection, appraisal, title review, insurance availability, and contract deadlines each protect a different part of your purchase.
Keep room after closing
Preserve a practical reserve for moving, utilities, repairs, maintenance, furnishings, and the surprises that come with ownership.
Educational information only—not lending, tax, legal, insurance, or financial advice. Program rules and costs vary; confirm current terms with appropriately licensed professionals.
