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)
