TrueAffordHome Affordability by State
What can you afford in South Dakota?
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 South Dakota's own property tax and insurance data rather than a national average. Every assumption is editable in the full calculator below.
South Dakota's effective property tax rate is around 1.00% of home value per year — the 16th highest in the country. Average homeowner's insurance runs near $2,724/year on a $300,000 home — the 17th highest.

A lender would likely approve up to $340,719 on this baseline in South Dakota — but this household's own budget, once real expenses are counted, can only sustain $305,078. That $35,641 gap is exactly the kind of overreach this calculator exists to flag before it becomes a monthly deficit.
