Using Mortgage calculator
Borrowed principal = price − down payment. Calculate a fixed monthly loan payment, then add annual property tax and insurance divided by 12, plus other monthly costs.
Assumes monthly compounding and fixed-rate end-of-month payments. Include HOA fees or mortgage insurance in other costs when applicable. Closing costs and changing escrow amounts are excluded; this is not a loan offer.
A worked example
With home price = 300000, down payment = 60000, annual nominal interest (%) = 6, term (years) = 30, annual property tax = 3000, annual insurance = 1200, monthly other housing costs = 0, the estimated monthly total is 1,788.92 (rounded to two decimal places).
Before you use the result
Assumes monthly compounding and fixed-rate end-of-month payments. Include HOA fees or mortgage insurance in other costs when applicable. Closing costs and changing escrow amounts are excluded; this is not a loan offer. Calculations keep full browser-number precision. Money amounts are displayed to two decimal places; other results use up to 12 significant digits. Very large values may lose precision.
