Works in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to us.

Type the rate you have been quoted; rates change daily and depend on your credit and the loan.

Taxes, insurance and fees

Property tax is a share of the home's value and varies by county. PMI applies only when the down payment is under 20%, and stops once the balance falls to 78% of the price.

Extra payments

Extra money goes straight to the principal, which cuts the interest and the number of payments.

    The term is set to 15 years. A $320,000 loan at 6.5% costs $2,787.54 a month in principal and interest over 15 years against $2,022.62 over 30, but the total interest falls from about $408,000 to about $182,000. 15-year rates are usually lower too; type the rate you are quoted.

    How it works

    15 Year Mortgage Calculator is a web page that does its work on your own device. Everything you type or choose is worked out by your browser and never sent to a server, so nothing is stored and there is nothing to delete. There is no account, no sign-up and no limit on how often you use it.

    Compare the terms

    Switch the term to 30 years and back to see both payments. If the 15-year payment is a stretch, a 30-year loan with extra payments gives similar savings while keeping the lower payment available in a tight month.
