* Principal & Interest payment is calculated using standard amortization. US 30-yr fixed, 2024. Property tax (~1.1%/yr) and homeowner's insurance (~0.5%/yr) are estimates — actual costs vary by location. PMI rate estimated at ~0.85%/yr when deposit is under 20%.
How This Mortgage Payment is Calculated
Mortgage payments are calculated using the standard amortization formula, which spreads the loan principal and all interest evenly across each monthly payment so the loan is fully paid off at the end of the term.
Formula:
M = P × [r(1+r)ⁿ] / [(1+r)ⁿ − 1]
P = $800,000 (loan amount)
Annual rate = 5.5% → monthly rate r = 5.5% ÷ 12 = 0.004583
n = 15 years × 12 months = 180 total payments
M = $800,000 × [0.004583 × (1+0.004583)^180] / [(1+0.004583)^180 − 1]
M = $6,536.67 per month
