Mortgage Repayment Calculator
A Quick Overview
This mortgage repayment calculator shows your payment, interest, and payoff path. It gives fast, clear numbers you can use right away. You get a full amortization schedule and a pie chart that compares principal and interest. You can add extra monthly payments, property tax, insurance, and homeowners association fees. Use it to plan, compare, and budget with confidence.
How It Works
The calculator uses standard fixed rate amortization math. Enter the loan amount, the annual interest rate, and the loan term in years. The calculator converts the rate to a monthly rate. It then calculates a fixed principal and interest payment.
Property tax and insurance are yearly figures. The calculator divides each by 12 and adds them to your monthly total. Homeowners association fees are monthly and go straight into the total payment.
Extra monthly payment goes to principal each month. This reduces the balance faster. You pay less interest over time and finish sooner.
Here is what the results show and how to read them:
- Principal and Interest: Your base monthly mortgage payment.
- Property Tax: Your monthly share of the yearly tax you entered.
- Insurance: Your monthly share of the yearly premium you entered.
- HOA Fees: Your monthly homeowners association fee.
- Total Monthly Payment: The sum of all monthly items above.
- Total of All Payments: The lifetime amount paid toward the loan and any extra payments.
- Total Interest Paid: The lifetime interest based on your inputs.
- Interest Savings and Months Saved: These show once you enter an extra monthly payment.
- Amortization Schedule: View a yearly summary or monthly details for the first 12 months.
- Pie Chart: See how principal compares to total interest across the loan.
