Understand FHA Loan Calculator Basic and Advanced Inputs
Using an FHA Loan Calculator can help you quickly and accurately predict your monthly mortgage payment with just a few pieces of information. It can also show you the total amount of interest you’ll pay over the life of your mortgage. To use this calculator, you’ll need the following information:
Home price — The dollar amount you expect to pay for a home.
Down payment — Money paid for a house from one’s own funds at closing. The down payment will be the difference between the purchase price and mortgage amount.
Mortgage Interest Rate — The periodic charge, expressed as a percentage, for use of credit. Remember, we have a mortgage rate tool for that.
Property tax — A government tax based on the market value of a property.
Home insurance — Home insurance or homeowners insurance is typically required by lenders. You can edit this number in the mortgage calculator advanced options.
HOA Fee — Owners of condos or townhomes are required to pay homeowners association dues (known as HOA fees), to cover common amenities or services within the property such as garbage collection, landscaping, snow removal, pool maintenance, and hazard insurance.
Pay-off your Mortgage — This is the length of time you choose to pay off your loan (e.g., 30 years, 20 years, 15 years, etc.)
Loan Amortization — A complete table of periodic blended loan payments, showing the amount of principal and the amount of interest that comprise each payment so that the loan will be paid off at the end of its term. While each periodic payment is the same, early in the schedule, the majority of each periodic payment is interest. The percentage of each payment that goes toward interest diminishes a bit with each payment, and the percentage that goes toward principal increases. Later in the schedule, the majority of each periodic payment is put toward the principal. The last line of the schedule shows the borrower’s total interest and principal payments for the entire loan term.
