Home Affordability by State
What can you afford in Missouri?
A baseline estimate for a household earning $90,000 a year gross, with typical debts and expenses, a $30,000 down payment, and a 740-759 credit score — using Missouri's own property tax and insurance data rather than a national average. Every assumption is editable in the full calculator below.
Missouri's effective property tax rate is around 0.89% of home value per year — the 23rd highest in the country. Average homeowner's insurance runs near $2,940/year on a $300,000 home — the 15th highest.

A lender would likely approve up to $341,988 on this baseline in Missouri — but this household's own budget, once real expenses are counted, can only sustain $306,113. That $35,875 gap is exactly the kind of overreach this calculator exists to flag before it becomes a monthly deficit.
