How this calculator works

Principal and interest come from the standard fixed-rate amortisation formula: the loan amount, the monthly interest rate, and the number of monthly payments in the term. Early payments are mostly interest; later ones are mostly principal.

Property taxes and homeowners insurance are annual figures divided by twelve, the way a lender's escrow account collects them. PMI is estimated only while the loan is more than 80% of the home's value, and HOA dues are added as-is.

Together these five pieces are what people mean by "PITI plus" — the number that actually leaves your bank account each month.

What it can't tell you

  • It is not a rate quote or a pre-approval. Your real rate depends on credit, program, points, lock period and market conditions.
  • Real property tax and insurance amounts vary widely by location and property, and can change every year.
  • Adjustable-rate loans, temporary buydowns, FHA/VA/USDA fee structures and interest-only terms are not modelled here.
  • It doesn't include maintenance, utilities or the cash you need at closing.
