Every payment split between interest and principal, alongside the escrow items a lender collects with it. PMI stops once the balance falls below 80% of the purchase price.

Step by step

How to use it

  1. 01

    01Set price and down payment

    The difference is the financed loan amount; closing costs are separate unless you add them to the scenario.

  2. 02

    02Enter rate and term

    These determine the scheduled principal-and-interest payment.

  3. 03

    03Add ownership costs

    Include property tax, annual insurance, monthly HOA dues, and a PMI-rate estimate where applicable.

  4. 04

    04Test extra principal

    Compare the original term with an accelerated balance path, while remembering that taxes and insurance continue after payoff.

Shopping by principal and interest alone understates the monthly housing cost. Taxes, insurance, HOA, PMI, maintenance, utilities, and closing cash all matter.

Why this one

The mortgage is only part of homeownership

Down payment changes several levers

It lowers the loan balance and loan-to-value ratio, which can also affect rate and mortgage-insurance requirements.

Taxes and insurance can rise

A fixed-rate mortgage fixes principal and interest, not property assessments, insurance premiums, or HOA dues.

PMI rules are lender-specific

This tool estimates PMI from an annual rate. Cancellation eligibility and actual pricing depend on the loan.

Extra payments do not remove every housing cost

Paying off principal early ends mortgage interest, but tax, insurance, maintenance, and association costs remain.

The judgement call

Which number should guide the decision?

  • Compare mortgage rate offers

    APR and closing costs

    The note rate alone omits certain financing costs.

  • Check monthly affordability

    All-in housing cost

    Taxes, insurance, HOA, and PMI all consume cash.

  • Choose a down payment

    Compare cash reserve and LTV

    More down can lower payment but also use emergency liquidity.

  • Get an exact tax or PMI amount

    Local and lender quotes

    Rates and cancellation rules vary by property and loan.

FAQ

Questions, answered plainly

What is included in the monthly mortgage estimate?

The monthly mortgage estimate includes principal and interest plus entered property tax, homeowners insurance, HOA dues, and estimated PMI.

When is PMI required?

Conventional loans commonly require it at higher loan-to-value ratios, often when the down payment is below 20%, but lender and loan rules vary.

Does a fixed-rate mortgage payment ever change?

Principal and interest stay fixed on a standard fixed-rate loan, but escrowed property taxes and insurance can change, as can HOA dues.

Are closing costs included?

No. Appraisal, title, lender, escrow, prepaid tax, and other closing costs require a separate cash estimate unless financed.

How do extra payments affect the mortgage?

Applied to principal, they reduce the balance sooner, shorten payoff, and lower future interest. Confirm how your servicer applies them.
