How much rent should I pay from my salary?
How much rent you can afford depends entirely on your financial situation. For example, if your financial position is good, you can afford higher rent, and if you have loans, keep the rent below 30% of the salary.
So, when you earn $58,000 per year, your monthly salary will be $4833.33. On your monthly salary, you can afford a home rent of up to $1450.00.
