Use this calculator,,,

to see if it makes sense to trade up to a larger and more luxurious home. Based upon your input, it will display three different financial scenarios:

(1)
The first scenario assumes that the proceeds from the sale of your current house are rolled over to become the down payment
on your tradeup house.

(2)
The second scenario assumes that you make a
20% down payment on your trade-up house.

(3)
The third allows you to select the percent of down payment
you wish to make on your trade-up house. Note: If your downpayment falls below 20% of the purchase price your lender will likely require that you carry private mortgage insurance.

Enter your information in the yellow cells, replacing any values that the cells may contain. Use the Tab key to move from yellow cell to cell.
