How it works

The '30% rule' traces back to U.S. HUD guidelines: if housing costs stay under 30% of monthly income, the rest of your budget generally stays healthy. This tool shows three tiers — comfortable (20%), standard (30%), and upper limit (40%).

FAQ

Q. Does this include loan repayments too?
