The average monthly mortgage payment on a median-priced home reached a record high of $2,570 in 2024, based on a 30-year fixed-rate loan and a 3.5% down payment, according to the State of the Nation’s Housing 2025 report from Harvard University’s Joint Center for Housing Studies. Using a 31% debt-to-income ratio, a homebuyer would need to earn at least $126,700 per year to afford that monthly payment.
