About Mortgage Calculator

The Mortgage Calculator estimates a monthly housing payment from home price, down payment, fixed annual interest rate, loan term, annual property tax, annual home insurance, and monthly HOA fees. It also reports principal-and-interest cost, lifetime interest, and loan-to-value ratio.

The lifetime loan-cost figures include principal and interest only. Property tax, insurance, and HOA amounts are included in the monthly estimate but not in the displayed lifetime principal-and-interest total.

Formula & Mathematical Calculation

Loan amount = Home price − Down payment

Monthly P&I = P × [r(1 + r)n] ÷ [(1 + r)n − 1]

Total monthly payment = Monthly P&I + Annual property tax ÷ 12 + Annual insurance ÷ 12 + Monthly HOA

P is the loan amount, r is the annual rate divided by 100 and 12, and n is years × 12. Loan-to-value = Loan amount ÷ Home price × 100.

Calculation Example

Example: A $380,000 home with a $76,000 down payment creates a $304,000 loan. At 6.5% for 30 years, with $4,500 annual property tax, $1,200 annual insurance, and $0 HOA, monthly principal and interest is $1,921.49. Adding $375.00 tax and $100.00 insurance gives a total monthly payment of $2,396.49. Lifetime interest is $387,735.24, total principal plus interest is $691,735.24, and LTV is 80.0%.

Assumptions & Limitations

What the calculation assumes

  • Every value you enter is treated as an exact, known amount.
  • Rates and contributions are assumed to stay constant for the whole period unless the form asks for them separately.
  • Results use standard financial formulas and ignore fees, penalties and promotional terms that are not entered above.
  • Inflation, tax changes and market volatility are not modelled unless a field for them is provided.
  • Amounts are unit-agnostic: results are returned in the same currency you enter.

What it does not cover

  • Mortgage Calculator produces estimates for education and planning, not a quote, offer or professional advice.
  • Real-world outcomes differ when fees, taxes, rounding rules or provider-specific terms apply.
  • Local regulations and tax rules vary by country and change over time; verify current rules for your jurisdiction.
  • Figures are only as accurate as the inputs you supply — check them before acting on the result.
  • For decisions with lasting financial impact, confirm the numbers with a qualified professional.
