Answer:

Monthly housing payment 2,033.22

Explanation:

We need to calculate the monthly cuota of the mortgage

It will be the cuota of a 30 year annuity at 7.5 rate

[tex]PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = C[/tex]

We should convert the year in month and the rate in monthly, because the payment are monthly.

time= 30 year so 30 x 12 = 360 months

rate = 0.075 / 12 = 0.00625 monthly

Present Value = 225,000

[tex]225,000 \div \frac{1-(1+0.00625)^{-360} }{0.00625} = C[/tex]

C = $1,573.23

Now we will calculate the propert taxes, insurance per month

2,050 /  12 = 170.83

530   /   12  =   44.16

1,573.23 + 170.83 + 44.16 + 245 = 2,033.22
