Mortgage Calculator

Here is a useful tool for you to get a sense of what your mortgage payments will look like.  Be careful because this number will likely be a little lower than your actual payments because it does not account for property tax, HOA fees, or any hazard insurance or other lender required fees.  It generally includes the principal, interest payment, and PMI if you put less than 20% down.

This mortgage calculator can be used to figure out monthly payments of a home mortgage loan, based on the home's sale price, the term of the loan desired, buyer's down payment percentage, and the loan's interest rate. This calculator factors in PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) for loans where less than 20% is put as a down payment. Also taken into consideration are the town property taxes, and their effect on the total monthly mortgage payment.
