Ownership Cost and Qualifying Assumptions

Maintenance budgets, buyer and seller closing cost ranges, and the debt-to-income thresholds lenders underwrite against. Homeowners insurance premiums are a user input rather than a modelled value — see the notes for why.

  • Homeowners insurance premiums are not modelled per state. Premiums vary by carrier, construction, claims history and proximity to peril in ways a statewide average cannot represent responsibly, so the calculators take an annual premium as an input instead.
  • Maintenance and closing cost figures are ranges, not point estimates. Publishing a single number would imply a precision the underlying sources do not support.

The same data is served live over the REST API with no key — /api/v1/states for the state table and /api/v1/assumptions for every constant. A machine-readable index of these downloads lives at /datasets/index.json.

What is not in here

Homeowners insurance premiums are not published per state. They vary by carrier, construction type, claims history and distance to peril in ways a statewide average would misrepresent, so the calculators take a premium as an input instead of inventing one. County-level property tax rates are also absent: the rates here are statewide averages, and counties within a state routinely differ by a factor of two. The methodology page sets out every limit in full.
