Refinance Mortgage Calculator Explained
This refinance mortgage calculator helps you compare your current mortgage, a
potential new refinance, and savings under different scenarios. This refinance
calculator can be used to figure out how different refinances affect your
monthly payment. A refinance calculator should show you your overall savings.
This example factors in the following on your current mortgage:
-
your current mortgage balance
-
the total length of your loan (in months)
-
your current interest rate
-
the number of payments you have already made
Next, a potential refinance uses the following factors:
-
the new amount being borrowed
-
the new loan term (not always 360 months)
-
the new interest rate
-
your closing costs
-
the months until you plan on selling the property
Your monthly payments are lowered even after you refinance and cash out
because your overall rate is lower. It is important to compare apples and
apples: factor in just the cost of the mortgage, not taxes or other non-loan
factors. Your "total monthly payment" that you are considering may include tax
payments into an impound account, or other items. If you add these in, the
refinance mortgage calculator will not let you compare both loans properly.
