Home loan

[nightrythm]

Can anyone explain this stuff to me in an easy way? I've read everything and I'm still confused.

Why can't I just go in and say, I can afford to spend $x a month on my home (mortgage/insurance/taxes etc.) and I have $x to put down, how much money can I get?

Math is hard and I wanna go shopping, but I can't without doing the math first. *grump*
