This Financial Calculator requires a Browser with Java Support



Definitions

Annual Percentage Rate (APR)
A standard calculation used by lenders. It is designed to help borrowers compare different loan options. For example, a loan with a lower stated interest rate may be a bad value if its fees are too high. Likewise, a loan with a higher stated rate with very low fees could be an exceptional value. APR calculations incorporate these fees into a single rate. You can then compare loans with different fees, rates or different terms.

Mortgage amount
Original or expected balance for your mortgage.

Interest rate
Annual interest rate for this mortgage.

Term in years
The number of years over which you will repay this loan. The most common mortgage terms are 15 years and 30 years.

Monthly payment
Monthly principal and interest payment (PI).

Total payments
Total of all monthly payments over the full term of the mortgage. This total payment amount assumes that there are no prepayments of principal.

Total interest
Total of all interest paid over the full term of the mortgage. This total interest amount assumes that there are no prepayments of principal.

Loan origination percent
The percent of your loan charged as a loan origination fee. For example, a 1% fee on a $120,000 loan would cost $1,200.

Discount points
Total number of "points" purchased to reduce your mortgage's interest rate. Each "point" costs 1% of your loan amount.

Other fees
Any other fees that should be included in the APR calculation. These fees can vary by lender, but at a minimum usually includes prepaid interest.

Real Estate Tips
Financing Your Home >Happy Banking

When you have found the perfect home, the search for the perfect loan begins. There are other factors you should consider besides the interest rate and loan fees when you are shopping for a loan. One important issue is the lender's general reputation.

A professional real estate agent can provide you with the names of several mortgage lenders and can help you compare their programs. Some lenders may have great rates, but may have very conservative standards for qualifying customers. Others may be more willing to consider people who are marginally qualified or have less-than-perfect credit histories. Some lenders have local underwriters and can process loans quickly, while others may need extra time to process paperwork. The ordinary consumer deals with only a few mortgage lenders over a lifetime, but real estate agents deal with many lenders every month. Ask your agent to help you match your individual needs to the many offerings in this complicated marketplace.
