This mortgage calculator can be used to figure out monthly payments of a home mortgage loan, based on the home's sale price, the term of the loan desired, buyer's down payment percentage, and the loan's interest rate. This calculator factors in PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) for loans where less than 20% is put as a down payment. Also taken into consideration are the town property taxes, and their effect on the total monthly mortgage payment.
I don’t know what the mortgage situation is around the world but
here in England the mortgage industry is a constant point of
debate. It used to be that everyone aspired to having a mortgage
on a nice home – you know the kind of house with enough rooms to
cater for the average family with 2.4 children. I was no
different myself when I first wanted to get on the first rung of
the housing ladder ten years ago.
At the time I was living in a council flat (a government housing
apartment) with my husband and our baby daughter. The apartment
was a fairly decent size but I had gone back to work and my
partner was working long hours so we thought that we wanted to
stop renting and take out a mortgage to
buy our own house. I felt quite strongly that I wanted to have a
mortgage so that we were not paying ‘dead money’ in rent. We
looked around the area we were in for suitable house, nothing
too fancy, just a comfortable two-bedroom property with a small
garden for our daughter to play in safely as she grew older. We
narrowed down our choices to get an idea of what size of
mortgage we required. The next step was to approach a number of
mortgage
providers to see who offered the best rate for our needs.
It was rare to be able to obtain a mortgage that covered 100% of
the property’s purchase price but we were lucky in the fact that
a member of my family was happy to make up the shortfall for our
deposit. After a few weeks we had our mortgage set up and put in
our offer for the house we both loved. All that was left then
was to wait to see if the house seller would accept our bid.
That was one of the longest waits I had ever had, up to that
point! Finally, we received the call that told us that the house
was ours! The paperwork was all exchanged and the money from our
mortgage transferred into the buyer’s account. Now we could make
arrangements to move in and look forward to a long and happy
life in our new home or that was the hope at the time.
Unfortunately, my marriage broke down after only a year in our
new home. I contacted the mortgage company to see if I could take
on the mortgage myself. Sadly, the amount of money I was
earning was not enough and the mortgage company refused my
application. I had no choice but to try and sell the house and
find a smaller property that I could afford by taking out a
mortgage in my own right. The house prices in my area, and the
majority of England too, were rising at a ridiculous rate and
fewer people were able to take out a mortgage to cover the
inflated costs. This was the problem that I faced. Eventually,
the reality sank in that I was going to lose my house and have
to go back into a council apartment and that is exactly what
happened.
I know my story is not unique by any means but the situation has
got to the stage in this country that no one can afford to get a
mortgage to cover the high cost of houses and apartments. This
is not restricted to first-time buyers either. I strongly
believe that the housing market is going to crash in the near
future as there are too many houses for sale that people are
unable to obtain a mortgage to buy. The average salary in this
country is too low to qualify for a 100% mortgage on a middle of
the range house or apartment. I know I am not alone to be in the
frustrating situation that I am in at present but I am still
positive that the situation will change in the near future and
mortgages will be available to cover the cost of a new home. I
am looking forward to that day so that my new family and I can
stop paying ‘dead money’ in rent and get a mortgage to buy our
own family home.
