Crunching the numbers is a necessary part of buying any house. We all would rather do something else, but there are a few ways to make it easier. Here are some online financial calculators from RealEstate.com that do just that. (Please note that they all have a disclaimer not guaranteeing their accuracy, but they are usually pretty good if you give them good numbers. For more about their limitations, see: The Trouble with Mortgage Calculators from Realty Times)
