Calculation Method

Principal & interest use the standard amortized formula M = P Β· [ r(1+r)^n ] / [ (1+r)^n βˆ’ 1 ]. Property tax and insurance are spread monthly. PMI is added automatically when the down payment is under 20% (typical rate β‰ˆ 0.4–1.0% / yr of the loan). HOA fees are flat additions. Total PITI = P&I + Tax + Insurance + PMI + HOA.

Examples

$400,000 home, 20% down, 6.75% APR, 30 years

Loan of $320,000 β†’ about $2,076 P&I; with ~1.1% property tax and $1,500 / yr insurance, monthly PITI is roughly $2,576.
