Mortgage Calculator Notes

  • What is a Mortgage?

    A mortgage is a loan specifically designed for purchasing property, where the property itself serves as collateral. The borrower repays the loan with interest over an agreed period.

  • Monthly Payment Formula

    M = P × [r(1+r)n] / [(1+r)n - 1]

    • M = Monthly payment
    • P = Principal loan amount
    • r = Monthly interest rate (annual rate / 12)
    • n = Number of payments (years × 12)
  • Important Notes

    This calculator provides an estimate for fixed-rate mortgages with equal monthly payments. Actual payments may vary based on property taxes, insurance, and PMI.

    Consider speaking with a mortgage broker or financial advisor for personalised advice on your specific situation.
