How it works

M = P × r(1+r)ⁿ ÷ ((1+r)ⁿ − 1), with r = APR ÷ 12. Total payment adds monthly escrow = (annual tax + annual insurance) ÷ 12.

Example: $300,000 at 6.5% for 30 years → $1,896/month P&I; at $4,000 tax + $1,200 insurance → $2,330 total.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the mortgage formula this calculator uses?

It uses the standard amortising loan formula: M = P × r(1+r)ⁿ ÷ ((1+r)ⁿ − 1), where P is the loan amount, r the monthly rate (APR ÷ 12) and n the number of monthly payments.

Should I include property tax and insurance in the monthly payment?

Yes for a realistic budget. Enter your annual property tax and home insurance and the calculator adds them to the principal-and-interest payment so you see your true monthly housing cost.

Why does my monthly payment differ from my lender's quote?

Lenders may use a different rate, loan amount, term or add PMI, closing costs and escrow. Check which inputs your lender used and enter the same values here.
