Adjustable Rate Mortgage Calculator

Adjustable rate mortgages can provide attractive interest rates, but your payment is not fixed. This calculator helps you to determine what your adjustable mortgage payments may be.

Definitions

Mortgage amount

Original or expected balance for your mortgage.

Starting interest rate

Initial annual interest rate for this mortgage.

Term in years

The number of years over which you will repay this loan. The most common mortgage terms are 15 years and 30 years.

Interest rate cap

This is the highest interest rate allowed by your mortgage. Your actual interest rate will not be adjusted above this rate.

Expected adjustment

The amount you believe that your mortgage's interest rate will change. This amount will be added to or subtracted from your interest rate.

Months between adjustments

The number of payment periods between potential adjustments to your interest rate. The most common is 12 months, which means your payment could change at most once per year.

Starting monthly payment

Monthly principal and interest payment (PI) based on your beginning balance and starting interest rate.

Total payments

Total of all monthly payments over the full term of the mortgage. This total payment amount assumes that there are no prepayments of principal.

Financing Your Home >Lenders Want to Say Yes If you wish to buy a home but consider yourself incapable of getting credit, you may be living in the past in terms of assessing your financial situation. Lenders have become more flexible in underwriting mortgage loans. A recent survey of mortgage lenders revealed some interesting trends. Ninety-six percent of those surveyed had cut their standard down payment requirements for moderate-income buyers, and 93% said they are more lenient regarding debt-to-income-ratios. Ninety-four percent of those surveyed said they now have more flexible approaches to credit histories, and look at rent and utility payments more than credit cards. Seventy-nine percent of lenders say they have relaxed employment criteria. They now look more at your capacity to generate a stable flow of income rather than requiring a long history at one job. There are more lenders today, and they are in fierce competition with each other. The home loan industry has created entire markets that cater to those with less-than-perfect credit.
