Mortgage calculator

Buying an apartment is one of the biggest financial decisions in a person's life. An integral part of this process is understanding the terms of the mortgage — the amount of the monthly repayment, the duration of the period, the total interest rate and more. Here comes into the picture Mortgage calculator, an online tool that allows you to make quick calculations and understand the order of magnitude of the future payback. But -- not every calculator is accurate, and not every result tells the whole story.

So how does a mortgage calculator work -- the formula behind the scenes

Most mortgage calculators use the financial formula to calculate Fixed monthly repayments (using the Spitzer method), which looks like this:

Explanation of variables:

M — Monthly payback

P — loan amount (principal)

r — Monthly interest rate (annual divided by 12 parts 100)

n — Total number of payments (years × 12)

Why is this important?

The calculator gives an immediate idea of the expected amount of payback, allowing:

  • Compare different interest rates or different periods
  • Understand what the desired monthly budget is
  • Decide whether to deploy the loan for more years and reduce the repayment, or shorten and reduce the overall interest rate

Vulnerabilities of inaccurate mortgage calculators

Not every calculator provides a complete picture. Here are the common problems:

1. LACK OF SUPPORT FOR VARIED ROUTES- MORTGAGES OFTEN CONSIST OF SEVERAL TRACKS (E.G. FIXED ATTACHED, VARIABLE NOT ATTACHED, PRIME). A simple calculator that calculates only one route -- is irrelevant to actual reality.

2. Ignoring index and variable interest rate increases- many calculators assume interest rates will remain constant over the period -- but in variable trajectories this is a problematic assumption. CPI linkages are also not calculated in most tools.

3. There is no complete disposal schedule- the lack of showing a breakdown of payments over time makes it difficult to understand the ratio of principal to interest on each payment. A disposal board is important for understanding the total payback and the ability to repay early.

How to choose a good mortgage calculator?

Look for a calculator that includes the following features:

  • Possibility to enter several tracks at the same time
  • Option to enter variable or fixed interest
  • Monthly Clearance Panel Display
  • Possibility to enter early payments or change conditions
  • Graphical demonstration of principal and interest repayment

A mortgage calculator is a great tool to get started -- it helps figure out numbers, feel the size of the repayment, and manage a budget wisely. But he Not a substitute for personal advice — A professional mortgage advisor will know how to build a personalized mix, take into account changing conditions and achieve better conditions in the bank. Use a calculator to ask smart questions, not to make final decisions.
