Worried buying is impossible on one salary?
Your answer, clearly explained
Start with a budget based on your own income and expenses. Check what remains after the mortgage and housing costs, without assuming family support or future rent.
The calculator works for one buyer
Enter only your income in the household income field. Add current debt payments and usual expenses. You do not need a second income to use Kenuvo.
Protect your reserve
A purchase can be fragile if completion absorbs all your savings. Keep purchase funds separate from money for surprises, maintenance and harder periods. The right reserve depends on your circumstances.
Compare practical adjustments
Test a cheaper home, better-defined works or a different mortgage term. Count support or rent only when established. A favourable calculation does not guarantee bank approval.
