What will your monthly payment be?
When you’re shopping for a new home, you may have lots of numbers thrown at you — like interest rates, loan terms, closing costs, homeowners insurance, and property taxes. All of these will affect your monthly mortgage payment. So how can you figure out what your payment will be? That’s where our Mortgage Calculator comes in.
Our Mortgage Calculator lets you consider numerous scenarios, showing what your payment will be in each case. For example, you can plug in different property sale prices, annual property taxes, and private mortgage insurance (PMI) costs. Let’s say you want to pay off your mortgage in 15 years, but a shorter loan term is going to mean higher monthly payments. Want to know exactly how much higher? Change your loan term from 15 to 30 years in the calculator, and you’ll see. You can even compare current market rates with where they may go in the future, either higher or lower.
The graph on our Mortgage Calculator shows how your equity, principal, and interest will change over time. The interest is cumulative interest paid. The orange line represents principal remaining, and the blue line shows how quickly the equity in your home will increase.
Remember, your credit score and the type of loan you choose will also impact your overall mortgage costs. You might be eligible for an FHA, VA, or USDA loan, each of which has different qualifications and could be favorable for your situation.
