Mortgage Amortization Calculator

Mortgage Amortization Calculator

This calculator is to find the monthly payment of a home mortgage loan. It will automatically factor in PMI for loans where less than 20% is used for a down payment. It does not factor in variable costs such as the title fee or hazard insurance. It is for demonstration only and does not provide final numbers.

Calculations

To figure out the monthly payment, we need to know (1) how much you're financing; (2) your monthly interest rate; and (3) how many months you're financing for.

1. Financing Amount

First, we need to figure how much you're financing.

We can do this based on the sale price of the home ( $ ) and the percent that you put down ( % ).

Start by calculating the down payment. Divide the percentage down by 100, then multiply by the sale price of the home.

(% / 100 ) x $ = $, your down payment

Now we can calculate how much you're financing—how much you need to borrow. That's just the sale price minus your down payment.

$ - $ = $, your financing price

2. Monthly Interest Rate

That % interest rate percentage you secured is an annual percent.

We'll need to convert that from a percentage to a decimal rate, and from an annual representation to a monthly one.

First, let's convert it to a decimal, by dividing the percent by 100.

% / 100 = , the annual interest rate

Now convert the annual rate to a monthly rate by dividing by 12 (for 12 months in a year).

/ 12 = , your monthly interest rate

3. Month Term

That's just the number of months you'll be paying off your loan.

You have a year mortgage x 12 months = months, your month term.

4. Your Monthly Mortgage Payment

Using the three numbers above, we can now calculate your monthly payment.

(financing price) x (monthly interest rate / (1 - ((1+monthly interest rate) -(monthly term) )))

x ( / (1 - ((1 + ) -( ) ))) = $, your monthly payment*
