How much will my payments be?Most future homeowners would like to have an estimated guess of what the payments will be on a new home. This is determined from what sort of loan you qualify for. Fortunately, it is quite simple to calculate this information. For example, to determine the loan amount, use the factors below: To make it easy let us say the loan is for $100,000. Then take the appraised value of the home (perhaps )$125,000, the term of the loan (usually 15 or 30 years), property taxes, percent of current interest rate, and homeowners insurance. These factors all contribute to how much a mortgage payment will be per month. Although your monthly payment is fixed, the amounts applied to principal and interest change as you make your payments. Initially, your payment is applied almost entirely to the interest you owe. The longer you pay on the loan, the greater the amount that is applied toward the principal. The principal is the amount that you have borrowed and must repay. |
