How to calculate for a Purchase Mortgage

When it comes to a purchase mortgage calculator, there are various key aspects to consider, like:

  • Price of your home
  • Down payment
  • Term of the loan
  • Interest rate
  • Property taxes to be paid each year
  • Homeowner’s insurance to be paid each year
  • Monthly fees towards homeowners’ association
Down Payment Options

If you pay at least 20% down or more, the interest rate would be lowered. As a result, you have nothing to pay towards your private mortgage insurance. Nonetheless, you could choose any of following down payment options:

  • Fixed rate conventional loans
  • FHA loans
  • VA loans
Which loan (Long term/Short term) is suitable for you?

It depends on individual choice, but the reality is that short-term loans are accompanied by a lower interest rate. If you opt for a long-term loan, usually the lender provides lower monthly payments.
