Mortgage basics

How mortgage payments work

Home price

The purchase price sets the starting point for down payment and loan amount.

Down payment

The down payment is paid upfront and reduces how much you borrow.

Interest rate

The mortgage rate determines how much interest accrues on the remaining balance.

Amortization

Repayment mortgages gradually shift from mostly interest to more principal over time.

Formula

Mortgage formula explanation

Example using your inputs: A £400,000.00 home with £80,000.00 down at 6.5% for 30 years is about £2,022.62 per month for principal and interest, before taxes, insurance, PMI, HOA, and optional extra payments.

Repayment mortgage

Payment = P × r × (1 + r)^n / ((1 + r)^n − 1)

P is loan amount, r is monthly interest rate, and n is the number of monthly payments.

Interest-only mortgage

Monthly Interest = Loan Amount × Monthly Rate

Interest-only payments cover interest but do not reduce the principal balance.

Total monthly housing cost

PITI + PMI + HOA = Principal + Interest + Tax + Insurance + PMI + HOA

This calculator adds entered monthly housing costs to the mortgage estimate.

Cost drivers

What affects total mortgage cost

Home price

A higher purchase price usually increases the loan amount, down payment, and total cost.

Down payment

A larger down payment reduces loan amount and may help avoid PMI.

Interest rate

A higher rate increases monthly payment and total interest, especially over long terms.

Taxes and insurance

Property taxes and insurance can significantly increase the monthly housing payment.

PMI

PMI can add a monthly cost when the down payment is smaller than lender requirements.

HOA fees

HOA or service fees may be part of housing cost but do not reduce the mortgage balance.

Comparison

Shorter term vs lower rate

Shorter term estimate

£2,160.66

A 25-year term may increase monthly principal and interest but reduce total interest to £328,198.87.

One point lower rate

£1,816.92

At 5.50%, principal and interest may fall and total interest may be about £334,092.93.
