Caixa housing simulator: what it is, how it works and how to use it

In this article, we will explore how Caixa Econômica Federal's Housing Simulator works, linked to the Minha Casa Minha Vida program. This tool provides essential information for purchasing properties, whether new, used or under construction.

Thousands of Brazilians have already realized their dream of owning their own home through the program My Home My Life. To further facilitate this process, the Federal Savings Bank developed the Minha Casa Minha Vida Simulator, accessible to both the public and Caixa employees, when potential buyers seek information directly from the bank.

What is the Caixa housing simulator?

Caixa's Housing Simulator is an online tool that illustrates how financing for the desired property will work. This property can be new, used or still under construction. The simulator provides accurate data, such as the value of the monthly installments of the real estate financing, making it easier for buyers to make their decision.

How does the Caixa housing simulator work?

THE simulator allows prospective buyers to check all available financing options before making a purchase. It automatically calculates the maximum financeable amount and the required down payment, providing a clear overview of the costs involved.

Interested parties can adjust the installment values and down payment according to their possibilities, carrying out as many simulations as necessary to find the best financing option.
