Mortgage Calculator: Lose that Stress from Doing the Math Yourself (Bad credit home loan)

Monday 18 September 2006 @ 9:10 am

When considering a mortgage loan, knowing how much money you have and will have and how much you are willing to pay for the loan including the interest and principal is very, very important. To help you decide on projecting how much you will be paying bi-weekly or monthly, depending on the payment term you choose for the entire loan period of your mortgage, various mortgage calculators are available. These mortgage calculators are categorized into 15 classifications depending on the type of mortgage you want and the terms in interests and principal you want to apply. These classifications for mortgage calculators are the following: a. Mortgage calculator to determine a borrowers ability to afford a house. This type of calculator can be classified into two. There is a mortgage calculator that determines if a borrower can afford a house and mortgage calculator to help the borrower determine if it is better for him to make a small down payment or no down payment at all or save up first, then make a bigger down payment later on. b. Mortgage calculator for consolidating non-mortgage debt. There are three types of calculators under these. The first one is used for borrowers who want to consider merging non-mortgage debt in their bought mortgage. The second type of mortgage calculator is for those who want to consider refinancing their mortgage by cash-out or by taking another mortgage. The third kind is for borrowers who already have 2 mortgages for a particular loan and are considering other options to help pay off the 1st mortgage. c. Mortgage calculator to determine the monthly payments of their mortgage. The types of mortgage calculator to be used will depend on the terms you choose. There is a mortgage calculator for fixed rate mortgages, adjustable rate mortgages without negative amortizations, adjustable rate mortgages with negative amortizations, adjustable rate mortgages with flexible amortizations and mortgage payments with temporary buy downs. d. Mortgage calculator to determine how much interest borrowers can save should he decide to pay an additional amount for the principal value during payment. The mortgage calculator varies depending on the number of payments a borrower is willing to give. These are extra monthly payments, bi-weekly payments applied monthly, bi-weekly payments applied bi-weekly and extra monthly payments to be paid in a specific period. e. Mortgage calculator to determine if refinancing a mortgage will reduce its cost. This type of mortgage calculator can be applied to a borrower who wants to refinance a mortgage or 2 mortgages. Other calculators are used to determine if refinancing one mortgage into two can reduce costs while others are used to determine if cash-out refinancing is better than deciding to take on a second mortgage. f. Mortgage calculator for determining the length of time borrowers have to pay insurance premiums applied to their mortgage. g. Mortgage calculator to determine amortizations. There are 2 kinds of these. One determines the savings a borrower can have on his tax on the interests and the second mortgage calculator determines the appreciation of property being mortgaged. h. Mortgage calculator to compare two mortgages. These are different types of calculators that compare the various mortgages that include amortizations and non-amortizations, government and non-government loans, fixed rate and adjustable interests. i. Mortgage calculator to compute points and fees in a mortgage. The calculator is used to determine the rate of return of ARMs (Adjustable Rate Mortgages) and FRMs (Flexible Rate Mortgages) and the amount that can be saved or lost by using paying points for interest reduction on FRMs. j. Mortgage calculator for determining amounts to be paid for a mortgage insurance and down payment and k. Mortgage calculator to determine the feasibility of having a mortgage loan in a shorter term. These mortgage calculators and other various mortgage calculators are available for use in the Internet.

Home equity loan - Mortgage rate What is mortgage rate?

Wednesday 13 September 2006 @ 9:07 am

Mortgages help you in realizing your dreams (of owning a home) much earlier in your life. Thats why mortgages are so popular. If you have ever entered into a mortgage agreement or even if you have participated in a mortgage related discussion, you would already know what a mortgage rate is. However, if you havent ever participated in mortgage related discussion or if you are not familiar with the concept of mortgage rate, this article should help you in understanding this concept in a better way. All discussions on mortgages start with talks about mortgage rate. So if you were looking to mortgage a house, the first thing you would enquire about will be the mortgage rate. Mortgage rate, in fact, is the most important thing that governs all mortgage agreements. Mortgage rate is what you use to differentiate one mortgage offer from the other or one mortgage lender from the other. So what is this mortgage rate? Mortgage rate is the interest rate that the mortgage lenders charge on the money that they lend to you as a mortgage loan. You are required to return the mortgage loan amount to the mortgage lender over a period of time in the form of monthly mortgage payments. However, no one would lend any money for free i.e. without them earning something from it. For mortgage lenders, the earning/profit is realized in the form of the interest they charge on the mortgage loan amount. This interest is calculated on the basis of an interest rate which is also called the mortgage rate. So mortgage rate is used to determine your total monthly mortgage payments. Unless, its an interest only mortgage (where-in you pay only the interest for the first few years), your monthly mortgage payments will consist of both principal payment and interest payment. In the first few years, the interest portion is much larger than the principal portion. Broadly, there are 2 types of mortgage rates i.e. fixed mortgage rate and adjustable mortgage rate. Fixed mortgage rate is the mortgage rate that remains constant over a period of time whereas the adjustable mortgage rate varies over a period of time (based on the fluctuations in a pre-selected financial index like treasury security). Various combinations of these two types of mortgage rates are used to form different mortgage offers. Mortgage rate is really the most important thing (or maybe the sole thing) to consider when going for a home mortgage loan.
