The method, explained
Monthly payment = P × r ÷ [1 − (1 + r)^−n], where P is principal, r is annual interest ÷ 1200, and n is the number of monthly payments. At 0% interest, payment = P ÷ n.
A loan of 100,000 at 6% over 30 years has a monthly principal-and-interest payment of approximately 599.55.
What to keep in mind
This fixed-rate estimate excludes property taxes, insurance, association fees and lender charges. It is not a loan offer. Actual lender rounding may differ.
