Expert Takeaways
Target Income Baseline: Maintain at least $14.6M/mo in household net income (monthly payment $5.84M/mo) to keep your DTI safely below 36%β43%.
Emergency Liquidity Reserve: Keep at least $23.4M (equal to 3β6 months of debt payments) in liquid reserves to hedge against unexpected income shocks.
Interest Rate Shock Buffer: Stress-test your budget for a 1.5%β2% rate increase post-reset, which adds approximately $500K/mo to your obligation.
Optimal Prepayment Window: Prepayment penalties typically phase down to zero after 3 to 5 years; target this window for major principal reductions or refinancing.
Accelerated Principal Strategy: Applying an extra $8.76M toward principal annually directly shrinks your amortization schedule and saves thousands in lifetime interest.
