[quote=Anonymous]I agree that the way to do it is to figure out how much it will cost on a monthly basis, and then consider how that fits with your current budget, and what sort of room for contingencies you've left (e.g., we bought less house than we could afford in case one of us wanted to quit a miserable but high paying job). I'd also say that IME when we have a "range", we always end up buying at the top of the range (or perhaps slightly above), so I think it's better to keep your range a little on the low side-- maybe if you look at houses in the 1-1.5 range you'll have a better sense of what the tradeoff are within that range.
