Mortgage and Loan Calculators

These calculators cover borrowing: the monthly cost of a mortgage with taxes, insurance and PMI, how much house an income supports, whether a refinance pays for itself, what a car loan or lease really costs, the fastest way to clear several debts, the debt-to-income ratio lenders check, student loan repayment and the true APR once fees are counted.

About Loans & Mortgages

Each one shows the full picture rather than a single payment: amortization schedules, total interest, payoff dates, break-even months and charts of the balance over time. Extra payments, closing costs, trade-ins and points can all be added, because those are usually what decides between two options.

Results are estimates for planning. Lenders apply their own rules for credit scores, reserves, mortgage insurance and fees, and rates change daily, so use these numbers to compare options and prepare questions, then confirm with an official Loan Estimate or the lender's quote. For a simple fixed-rate loan with an EMI schedule, the EMI Calculator is also available.

Frequently asked questions

What does PITI mean in a mortgage payment?

Principal, interest, taxes and insurance. The Mortgage Calculator adds property tax, homeowners insurance, PMI and HOA dues to the loan payment so you see the full monthly cost.

Why is the APR higher than the interest rate?

APR spreads upfront fees and points over the life of the loan, so it reflects the total cost of borrowing. Two loans with the same rate but different fees have different APRs.

Is the avalanche or snowball method better for paying off debt?

Avalanche, paying the highest rate first, always costs less interest. Snowball, paying the smallest balance first, gives quicker wins. The Debt Payoff Calculator shows how big the difference is for your debts.

What debt-to-income ratio do lenders want?

Many conventional lenders look for a back-end ratio at or below about 36 to 43%, with some programs allowing more. Rules vary by loan type and lender, so treat these as typical figures.

Do these calculators include my credit score?

No. Enter the rate you have been quoted or expect. Credit scores affect the rate and mortgage insurance a lender offers, which these tools take as inputs.
