How it works

A full New Hampshire payment is more than principal and interest. At the state's 1.93% effective property tax rate, a $480,000 home owes about $9,264 a year in tax, and homeowners insurance averages roughly $1,100 a year here. Together those add about $864 to the monthly payment before any HOA dues or PMI.

New Hampshire's median household income is about $96,000, or $8,000 a month. Lenders generally want the full housing payment under about 28% of that — roughly $2,240 — which is why a median-priced home is comfortable in some metros and a stretch in others. Homes in New Hampshire sell in about 25 days on average.
