How the mortgage calculator works

The monthly payment is derived from the fixed-rate loan formula, which spreads principal and interest evenly over the term:

M = P × [ r(1+r)n ] / [ (1+r)n − 1 ]
  • M — monthly payment
  • P — loan principal (price − down payment)
  • r — monthly interest rate (annual ÷ 12)
  • n — total number of payments (years × 12)

Example: a $300,000 home with a 20% down payment ($60,000) leaves a $240,000 loan. At a 6.5% annual rate over 30 years, the monthly payment is about $1,517.

Use it to: compare loan options, decide between a 15- and 30-year term, estimate total interest over the life of the loan, or plan a refinance.
