Mortgage Calculator – Estimate Your Monthly Home Payment
Calculate your monthly mortgage payment including principal & interest, taxes, insurance, and HOA fees.
What is a Mortgage Calculator?
A mortgage calculator estimates your monthly payment for a home loan. It considers principal & interest and can include property tax, insurance, and HOA fees.
How Mortgage Payments Work
With a fixed-rate mortgage, monthly principal+interest stays constant, while the interest portion declines over time as the loan balance decreases.
Formula Explanation
Monthly Payment = P × r / (1 − (1 + r)^−n), where P is the loan amount, r is the monthly rate, and n is the number of payments.
