About this tool: A live, in-browser home-purchase analyzer. Affordability, monthly cost breakdown (PITI + HOA + maint + PMI), cash-to-close, front/back-end DTI, itemize-vs-standard tax benefit, year-by-year buy-vs-rent wealth simulation, and projected sale with §121 exclusion. All math runs client-side on your inputs. Nothing is sent to a server, nothing is stored. This is one piece of a larger real-estate analytics suite I built (forward projection, sell-vs-hold, refinance, Schedule E tax); those other tools require a server-side back-end and aren't deployed here.
