Home Affordability in the 11232 zip code

In 2007, the median household income in Brooklyn was $40,9422. Home affordability guidelines suggest that no more than 30% of household income be spent servicing a home loan. For the median Brooklyn household, this would have meant that a monthly mortgage payment should not have exceeded $1,024 using the 2007 average mortgage rate of 6.34%3. Combining this with 2007 property sales records, we can calculate that the median income household could have potentially afforded approximately 7.91% of the homes and apartments sold in 11232 in all of 2007.

1. All sales metrics are calculated from NYC Rolling and NYC Annual property sales. Metrics derived from rolling data are preliminary as some sales take months to report.
