What $1,350,000 costs over the life of the loan
At 6.5% over 30 years on a $1,080,000 loan, the interest alone comes to $1,377,484 — on top of the amount borrowed. Shortening the term is the single biggest lever on that number:
| Term | Monthly (P&I) | Total interest | Interest saved |
|---|---|---|---|
| 30 years | $6,826 | $1,377,484 | — |
| 20 years | $8,052 | $852,525 | $524,958 |
| 15 years | $9,408 | $613,433 | $764,051 |
Paying it off over 15 years instead of 30 costs $2,582 more a month and saves $764,051 in interest.
What one percentage point of rate is worth here
On a $1,080,000 loan, going from 6.5% to 7.5% adds $725 a month — and $261,068 across the full term. At this size, a rate quote worth shopping for is worth more than most of the fees people negotiate instead.
The income a lender would look for
Lenders commonly cap housing costs at 28% of gross monthly income. On the full payment of $8,214 — principal, interest, tax, insurance — that implies roughly $352,021 a year before tax. It is a rule of thumb, not an underwriting decision: your other debts, credit score and deposit all move it. See what that salary looks like after tax.
This is above the conforming loan limit
The 2026 conforming limit for a one-unit home is $832,750, set by the FHFA. A $20% deposit on $1,350,000 leaves a $1,080,000 loan, which is above it. That puts it in an awkward middle: it still conforms in designated high-cost areas, where the ceiling rises to $1,249,125, but it is a jumbo loan everywhere else. Whether this is a conforming mortgage depends on which county the house is in.
Jumbo lending is a different product, not just a bigger one. Expect a larger deposit, stronger credit and cash-reserve requirements, and pricing set by the lender rather than by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. The payment figures on this page still hold; the terms you would actually be offered are the part that changes.
