Why your credit changes the answer

Two buyers borrowing the same amount can get very different payments. Your credit tier sets your rate, and a fraction of a percent compounds over 30 years. This calculator prices your payment off the tier you select.

What's in the payment

We estimate principal and interest from the loan amount, rate, and term, then add rough monthly property taxes and homeowner's insurance. Your real escrow will depend on your home's location and value.

A number to negotiate from

Lenders quote the most you can borrow. Working backward from a payment you're comfortable with — not the maximum — keeps your budget intact after you get the keys.
