How much home can I afford on Sandy Springs on a $150,000 salary?

Affordability on a given income comes from running your actual numbers, income, existing debt, down payment and current interest rate, through a lender's debt-to-income calculation, not from applying a general multiple to salary. Two buyers with the same income can qualify for very different loan amounts depending on debt load and credit profile, and Sandy Springs itself spans a wide enough price range that the target home type matters as much as the budget. A lender pre-approval turns this into a real number for your situation.
