Norfolk mortgage calculator
A median-priced Norfolk, VA home at 6.75% over 30 years, with Virginia property tax of 0.82% and $1,600 a year of homeowners insurance. Every figure below is computed on our amortising engine — nothing is estimated in the browser.
$2,172 a month, all in
Principal and interest are $1,716; escrow and PMI add the rest. Over the full term the loan costs $353,229 in interest. Discounted at 5%, buying here has a net present value of $145,324 ($377,921 in today’s dollars).
Within Virginia, Norfolk is the cheapest of the 6 Virginia markets covered here — Arlington runs about 2.71x these prices. Buyers priced out of the expensive end of the state often end up comparing exactly this pair.
Rents here are high relative to prices — a rent index of 0.90 against a price index of 0.70. That combination favours buying sooner, because the payment you avoid is larger relative to the price you pay.
Norfolk is cheaper than Virginia as a whole — $294,000 against a state median of $420,000, roughly 30% below. On a 20% deposit that is $25,200 less to find up front.

Where these numbers come from
Virginia medians come from editorial and are refreshed weekly. The Norfolk 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.
