Formula

Monthly P&I: annuity formula = P × r / (1 − (1+r)^−n) where r = monthly rate, n = months.

Monthly tax: home price × tax rate ÷ 1200

Monthly PMI: loan amount × PMI rate ÷ 1200 — drops to 0 when remaining balance ÷ home price ≤ 0.78.

Worked example

$400k home, 20% down, 30 yr, 6.8% APR, 1.1% tax:

Loan = $320k. P&I ≈ $2,090/mo. Tax = $367/mo. Insurance = $100/mo. No PMI (≥20% down). Total ≈ $2,557/mo.

FAQ

What is PITI? +

PITI stands for Principal, Interest, Tax, and Insurance — the four components of a typical mortgage payment. This calculator also includes PMI (private mortgage insurance) and HOA fees when applicable.

When does PMI drop off? +

PMI is required when the loan-to-value ratio exceeds 80% (i.e., down payment under 20%). By law, lenders must cancel PMI once the remaining balance reaches 78% of the original home value. The calculator shows exactly which month that occurs.

Does this include closing costs? +

No. Closing costs (typically 2–5% of the loan amount) are not included in v1. Add them separately to your total upfront cash requirement.

How are property taxes handled? +

Enter an annual property tax rate as a percentage of the home value. The calculator divides it by 12 and adds it to your monthly payment. Actual taxes vary by location and are reassessed periodically.

Can I change the PMI rate? +

The default PMI rate is 0.5% of the loan amount per year, which is a common midpoint. Actual PMI rates range from 0.2%–2% depending on credit score, down payment, and lender.
