Gulfport mortgage calculator
A median-priced Gulfport, MS home at 6.75% over 30 years, with Mississippi property tax of 0.75% and $3,300 a year of homeowners insurance. Every figure below is computed on our amortising engine — nothing is estimated in the browser.
$1,451 a month, all in
Principal and interest are $998; escrow and PMI add the rest. Over the full term the loan costs $205,449 in interest. Discounted at 5%, buying here has a net present value of $75,629 ($209,704 in today’s dollars).
Within Mississippi, Gulfport is 2nd of the 4 Mississippi markets covered here, between Southaven at the top and Jackson at the bottom of a 1.50x spread. A state-level median hides most of that.
At $171,000 to buy and $1,093 a month to rent, the price-to-rent ratio is 13.0 — low. Ownership tends to pull ahead quickly at that level, and the binding question is transaction costs rather than the monthly comparison.
Gulfport is cheaper than Mississippi as a whole — $171,000 against a state median of $190,000, roughly 10% below. On a 20% deposit that is $3,800 less to find up front.

Where these numbers come from
Mississippi medians come from editorial and are refreshed weekly. The Gulfport figures index those state medians to the local market, so they track the same feed rather than going stale. Insurance and the state income tax rate are editorial. Treat everything here as a planning estimate, not a quote.
