Loan Calculator - Mortgage Qualifier

The first step in buying a house is determining your budget. This calculator steps you through the process of finding out how much you can borrow. Fill in the entry fields and click on the "View Report" button to see a complete amortization schedule of your mortgage payments.

Monthly payment TOTAL_MONTHLY_PAYMENT

Total closing costs TOTAL_CLOSING_COSTS

Principal and interest MONTHLY_PI     Fee for points POINTS_PAID_AMT    
PMI  MONTHLY_PMI     Origination fee LOAN_ORIGINATION_AMT    
Taxes  MONTHLY_TAXES     Other closing costs OTHER_CLOSING_COSTS    
Insurance  MONTHLY_INSURANCE     

To avoid PMI payments a PERCENT_20_DOWN_AMT down payment is required. This equals PMI_PERCENT of your home's purchase price. The total amount of cash required for a PMI_PERCENT down payment plus closing costs would be CLOSING_COSTS_PLUS_20.

Qualify Calculation

The QLFY_AMOUNT monthly payment you could qualify for is calculated by taking the lower of these two calculations:

1.Monthly Income X LOW_DEBT_PITI_RATE = monthly PITI MONTHLY_INCOME X LOW_DEBT_PITI_RATE = QLFY_PITI_ONLY
2.Monthly Income X HIGH_DEBT_PITI_RATE - Other loan payments = monthly PITI MONTHLY_INCOME X HIGH_DEBT_PITI_RATE - TOTAL_LOAN_PAYMENTS = QLFY_PITI_DEBT

Purchase price
The price of the home you wish to purchase. This is the actual price you'll pay, not including any closing costs.

Cash on hand
Cash you have for the down payment and all closing costs.
Interest rate
The current annual interest rate you can receive on your 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.
Property tax rate
Your property tax rate. 1% for a $100,000 home equals $1,000 per year in property taxes.
Home insurance rate

Loan origination rate
The percentage the lending institution charges for its origination fee. 1% for a $100,000 home equals $1,000.
Number of points paid
The total number of points paid to reduce the interest rate of your mortgage. Each point costs 1% of your mortgage balance.
Other closing costs
Estimate of all other closing costs for this loan. This should include filing fees, appraiser fees and any other miscellaneous fees paid.
Monthly PMI payment
Monthly cost of Principal Mortgage Insurance (PMI). For loans secured with less than 20% down, PMI is estimated at 0.5% of your loan balance each year. Monthly PMI is calculated by multiplying your starting loan balance by this percent and dividing by 12. When the equity in your home exceeds the percentage required for PMI, your PMI payment drops to zero. Please note that this is only an estimate of your actual PMI. The amount you may be required to pay may be higher or lower than our estimate.
Monthly PI payment
Monthly principal and interest payment.
Total for down payment
Total funds remaining, after closing costs, for down payment.
Limit down payment
Limit your down payment to percentage required to eliminate the need for PMI payments. Even if you have more cash on hand than required for closing costs checking this box will limit your down payment to the minimum amount required to forego PMI.
