Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in a monthly mortgage payment?
A full monthly mortgage payment (PITI) includes principal, interest, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and PMI if your down payment is under 20%. HOA fees apply in some communities. Our calculator shows every component so you know your true monthly cost — not just principal and interest.
How do I calculate my monthly mortgage payment?
The standard formula uses your loan amount, interest rate, and term: M = P × [r(1+r)^n] / [(1+r)^n − 1], where P is principal, r is the monthly rate, and n is the number of payments. Add property tax, insurance, PMI, and HOA for your total payment. Our calculator does this instantly as you adjust sliders.
What is PITI in mortgage payments?
PITI stands for Principal, Interest, Taxes, and Insurance — the four core components of most monthly mortgage payments. Lenders use your full PITI (plus HOA and PMI when applicable) to evaluate affordability, not just the loan payment alone.
How does my down payment affect my monthly payment?
A larger down payment reduces your loan amount, which lowers both principal and interest each month. Putting 20% down also eliminates PMI, which can save $100–$300+ per month on a typical home. Use our scenario tool to compare 20% down vs your current down payment.
How can I lower my monthly mortgage payment?
You can lower your payment by putting more money down, buying at a lower price, choosing a longer loan term, improving your credit score for a better rate, or shopping multiple lenders. Our scenario comparison shows how a 6% rate or 15-year term would change your payment vs your current inputs.
