Vancouver mortgage calculator
A median-priced Vancouver, WA home at 6.75% over 30 years, with Washington property tax of 0.87% and $1,400 a year of homeowners insurance. Every figure below is computed on our amortising engine — nothing is estimated in the browser.
$4,225 a month, all in
Principal and interest are $3,438; escrow and PMI add the rest. Over the full term the loan costs $707,659 in interest. Discounted at 5%, buying here has a net present value of $-14,856 ($317,362 in today’s dollars).
Within Washington, Vancouver is 3rd of the 5 Washington markets covered here, between Bellevue at the top and Spokane at the bottom of a 2.67x spread. A state-level median hides most of that.
The price-to-rent ratio here is 22.3 ($589,000 to buy, $2,200 a month to rent), which is high. Renting and investing the deposit is a genuine alternative in Vancouver, not a fallback position.
Rents here are high relative to prices — a rent index of 1.00 against a price index of 0.95. That combination favours buying sooner, because the payment you avoid is larger relative to the price you pay.

Where these numbers come from
Washington medians come from editorial and are refreshed weekly. The Vancouver 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.
