Salary needed for a ₱30,000 monthly Pag-IBIG amortization

  • A ₱30,000 monthly Pag-IBIG amortization requires a gross salary of ₱85,714 — fixed by Pag-IBIG's rule that the monthly payment cannot go past 35% of your income before deductions.
  • That figure does not change with the interest rate; what the rate changes is the loan amount that payment services, which runs from ₱4,746,325 to ₱3,491,805 in the table below.
  • Based on Pag-IBIG's official 2026 rate table and a 30-year loan term — a planning number, not an approval.

How much house does ₱30,000 a month buy?

₱4,746,325 with the rate frozen for 5 years at 6.5%, but only ₱3,491,805 frozen for all 30 at 9.75% — the same budget buys ₱1,254,519 more house at the cheaper freeze.

What salary does a ₱30,000 payment need?

Pag-IBIG only lets the payment (the amortization, meaning the fixed monthly payment) take up 35% of your income before deductions, so you need ₱85,714 of gross monthly income — from one salary or a household's combined pay.

What loan term do these numbers assume?

A 30-year loan — the longest Pag-IBIG offers, and the one that stretches a monthly payment the furthest — at the official rates that run to the end of 2026. A shorter term means higher payments but much less interest overall; the interactive calculator lets you try both.

Is this the amount Pag-IBIG will approve?

No — it is a planning number, not an approval. Pag-IBIG approves the lowest of three figures: what your income can carry (computed here), 95% of what the Fund's appraiser says the property is worth, and the ₱10,000,000 program maximum.
