How does the Mortgage Calculator work?
Our mortgage calculator estimates your monthly principal and interest payments, helping you understand your financial obligations before committing to a home loan.
The Mortgage Formula
The standard formula for calculating fixed-rate mortgage payments is:
$$M = P \times \frac{r(1 + r)^n}{(1 + r)^n - 1}$$
- M = Total monthly mortgage payment
- P = Principal loan amount
- r = Monthly interest rate
- n = Number of payments (loan term in months)
