How Does Our Home Loan Repayment Calculator Work?
Our home loan repayment calculator functions by considering various key factors that influence your mortgage repayments. Here’s how it works:
1. Loan Amount
Input the total amount you plan to borrow. This is the principal amount of the loan.
2. Loan Type
Specify the type of loan you’re considering. Different loan types can have different terms and conditions that affect repayments.
3. Interest Rate
Enter the interest rate of the loan. This is crucial as it directly impacts the amount of interest you will pay on top of the principal.
4. Loan Term
Choose the duration over which you intend to repay the loan. Loan terms typically range from 15 to 30 years.
5. Repayment Frequency
Select how often you will make repayments – monthly, fortnightly, or weekly. This choice can influence the total amount of interest paid over the life of the loan.
6. Repayment Type
Decide between ‘interest-only’ or ‘principal and interest’ repayments. ‘Interest-only’ repayments mean you only pay the interest for a specified period, while ‘principal and interest’ repayments include both the principal and the interest.
By considering these inputs, the calculator provides an estimate of your regular mortgage repayments. This helps in understanding your financial commitment and aids in budgeting for your future home loan. Contact us today to find out more.
