Formula

Monthly principal and interest = P × i × (1 + i)^n ÷ ((1 + i)^n − 1), where P is the home price minus the down payment, i the monthly rate and n the number of monthly payments. Tax and insurance are added as one-twelfth of the yearly amount.

About this calculator

The calculator assumes a fixed interest rate and equal monthly payments for the whole term. It does not include mortgage insurance, association fees or closing costs.

Amounts are shown without a currency symbol, so the calculator works for any currency: enter all values in the same one.

Frequently asked questions

How much should my down payment be?

A larger down payment lowers the loan, the interest and often the rate. In many markets 20% avoids mortgage insurance, but requirements differ by country and lender.

Does it work for variable-rate mortgages?

It shows the payment at the rate you enter. For a variable rate, run it again with higher rates to see how your payment could change.
