Convert annual taxes to monthly: $1,800 ÷ 12 = $150; monthly hazard insurance: $700 ÷ 12 = $58.33; annual MIP paid monthly: $144,750 × 0.85% =$1,230.38 ÷ 12 = $102.53; calculate P&I: $147,283.13 × 6 = $883,698.78 ÷1000 = $883.70.

Calculate monthly MIP: $182,385 × 0.85% = $1,550.27 ÷ 12 = $129.19; monthly taxes: $2,300 ÷ 12 = $191.67; monthly hazard insurance: $750 ÷ 12 = $62.50; P&I: $185,576.74 × 5.68 = 1,054,075.88 ÷ 1,000 = $1,054.08. Final step is to add everything together to get the PITI amount: $1,054.08 + $129.19 + $191.67 + $62.50 = $1,437.44.
