A comfortable price, one that leaves more room in the budget, would be closer to $375,537.
Cash needed on closing day ($64,780) is more than the down payment alone. It includes land transfer tax, legal fees, and tax on the insurance premium.
Clearing that $400/month in debt would add roughly $78,000 to what you could qualify for.

What this number means

This number comes from two tests a lender actually runs: whether the payment fits within about 39% of your income, and whether you'd still qualify if rates rose two points. Your down payment, existing debt, and where you're buying all move it.
