5 How much House Health & Hospitals Can You Afford? How much you can afford is determined by a relatively simple formula. Lenders generally figure that no more than 28 percent of your income should be for total housing costs. In addition, they require that your total monthly Loudoun County Health Department 1 Harrison St. S.E. (703) debt be less than 36 percent of your income. (Note: These are general numbers. Other loan programs may allow higher percentages.) For example, if you make $48,000 a year, divided by 12 months, your monthly income is $4,000. (Remember, that s $48,000 in gross pay, before federal and state taxes are removed.) Twenty-eight percent of $4,000 is $1,120. That is the most you can make in a monthly mortgage, taxes, and insurance payments. Generally, to qualify, the self-employed buyer must have been self-employed in the same line of work for at least 24 months before applying for a loan. Lenders use your net income, the figure at the bottom of schedule C of your federal income tax form, to decide how large a mortgage you can carry. But they don t look at what you earn now Dial 911for Emergencies or what you made last year. Rather lenders figure the monthly average of your income over the past 24 months. Also, overtime pay & bonuses sometimes may not be figured into your average income. Don t forget that points, closing costs & other out-of-the-pocket expenses probably will come out to about one percent of the mortgage amount. Inova Loudoun Hospital Riverside Pkwy.

8 Loudoun County History Virginia T he first permanent British colonial settlement was the East Coast state of Virginia. It was named after Queen Elizabeth I, the Virgin Queen. King James, however, approved the setting up of the first colony in Jamestown in May, The state has played a key role in the nation s development and history since then. Extending from Chesapeake Bay in the east to the Allegheny Mountains in the west, the land regions are varied and include the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Piedmont Plateau. Because of the tidewater areas, where the Potomac, Rappahannock York and James River flows into the Chesapeake Bay, the most fertile soil is in the Shenandoah Valley. Offering spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding countryside is the Skyline Drive, through Shenandoah National Park. Virginia is an agricultural state, with crops such as tobacco, peanuts and corn. The major producer of cigarettes is their capital, Richmond. Tobacco was first cultivated by white settlers in 1612 using seeds brought by one of the colonists, from the West Indies. Virginia has many federal government buildings and offices providing employment because it is located close the the nation s capital. The greatest number of historical attractions in the United States reside in Virginia. Jamestown, site of the first settlement; the restored colonial town of Williamsburg, Virginia s capital between 1699 and 1779; and Yorktown, where the British finally surrendered to the Americans in 1781 is southeast of Richmond. Richmond had some of its buildings burned during the raid led by the treacherous Benedict Arnold. It also served as the capital of the Confederacy during most of the Civil War. Loudoun County is located between Washington, DC, and the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. To the east commerce thrives; while the western section still maintains its small farms, towns, and villages. The town of Leesburg, the county seat, was once named "George Town" honoring King George II. Leesburg was established in 1758 from land originally held by Lord Fairfax, then renamed for the influential Lee family of Virginia. The town was formed at the crossroads of two Colonial roads, now Routes 7 and 15, and is the seat of government for beautiful Loudoun County. Leesburg is located just 35 miles northwest of Washington DC, in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Loudoun County constitutes a part of the five million acre Northern Neck of Virginia Proprietary granted by King Charles II of England to seven noblemen in This grant, later known as the Fairfax Proprietary, lay between the Potomac and Rappahannock Rivers. Between 1653 and 1730, Westmoreland, Stafford and Prince William Counties were formed within the Proprietary, and in 1742 the remaining land was designated Fairfax County. In 1757, by act of the Virginia House of Burgesses, Fairfax County was divided. The western portion was named Loudoun for John Campbell, Fourth Earl of Loudoun, a Scottish nobleman who served as Commander-in-Chief for all British armed forces in North America and titular Governor of Virginia from 1756 to Leesburg has served continuously as the County Seat since FUN FACTS Capital Richmond Area 42,774 sq. mi.
