This calculator is similar to the above calculator except it allows you to add a broad range of extra payment types. For example, you could combine an extra weekly payment of $25 for 3 years and then switch over to an extra monthly payment of $150 for 2 years. Or you could do both at the same time along with various one-time payments. If your extra payments will be continuous until the loan is paid off & you intend to make them monthly then you can use this payoff calculator which includes a graphical layout.

Do you currently carry high interest revolving credit on credit cards, cars & other personal loans? You may be able to leverage a home equity line of credit (HELOC) to lower your monthly debt payments. Lenders typically allow borrowers to receive up to 80% of their home equity, though the precise LTV limit will depende on broader market conditions, your credit score and how valuable your customer relationship is to the bank.

We also offer the following: 10-year, 15-year & 20-year mortgage calculators which include advanced features like PMI, HOA, property taxes & homeowner's insurance. While uncommon loan terms in the United States, some of our visitors have also asked us to offer 25-year, 40-year, 50-year & 100-year calculators. Loans over 30 years typically are not a great choice for most home buyers.

This tool helps buyers calculate current interest-only payments, but most interest-only loans are adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs). When the housing market is hot many people chase it, buying near the peak with interest-only loans. If home prices continue to climb, one can refinance at a lower rate. However if rates reset higher, so too will payments — causing home prices to decline & many marginal buyers to lose their equity & perhaps their homes.
One problem with interest-only loans is that unless home prices rise the homeowner does not build any equity in their house, which puts them in a precarious position when mortgage rates rise. One way to build a bit of a buffer from market fluctuations is by adding extra payments applied toward your principal.
Are you looking at a couple different loan quotes? Use this free mortgage calculator to get a side-by-side view of multiple loan quotes to select the best offer. For each quote you can select different rates, terms, points, origination fees & closing costs. 15-year loans build home equity faster, whereas 30-year mortgages offer lower monthly payments.
In the early years of a longterm loan, most of the payment is applied toward interest. Home buyers can shave years off their loan by paying bi-weekly & making extra payments. Bi-weekly payments help you pay off principal in an accelerated fashion — before interest has a chance to compound on it.
In making biweekly payments, those 26 annual payments effectively create an additional (13th) month of regular payments in each calendar year.
