Hi Hailee, I estimate that in order to get an all in mortage payment under $2,600 a month then you would have to buy a new home around $325,000 with a fixed FHA mortgage rate around 4.5%.
 
Here is an example of how that's broken down at a $325,000 purchase price & a 4.5% fixed 30 year FHA mortgage:

  • Principle & interest: $1,589.09
  • Homeowners insurance: $125.00
  • Property taxes: $677.08
  • Mortgage insurance: $142.69
  • Total estimated payment: $2,533.86

 

This assumes a 2.5% tax rate & some homes can have higher or lower tax rates. 

 

Below are 19 homes that I handpicked to be close to what you described. 

 

There are many more new 1 story homes available & I could not find any with zero carptet but all of the homes below will only have carpet in the bedrooms.

 

Please let me know which homes you liked the best & I can work up a specifc payment estimate for that home. I also included homes up to $350,000 just for reference.
