About This Estimate

This calculation shows principal and interest only. Your actual monthly payment will also include property taxes (typically 0.5-2.5% of home value per year), homeowner's insurance ($1,000-$3,000+ per year), and possibly Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) if your down payment is less than 20%. Use our full mortgage calculator to see a complete payment breakdown including taxes, insurance, and PMI.
