What This Means

Selling your current home at $900,000 nets you $455,000 after ~5% selling costs. Applied to your target home at $1,100,000, you would need a new mortgage of $645,000. Your monthly payment would increase by $1,505 per month.

RAZZ Insight

The numbers suggest this move could put you under financial pressure. Your GDS ratio of 40% exceeds comfortable limits. Consider a less expensive target, paying down debt first, or waiting for your current home to appreciate further.
