Purchase Price and Down Payment Mortgage Calculator
If you’re buying a home, the down payment will be the portion of the cost of the house that you pay up front. After the down payment, the remaining balance of the cost of the home is generally lent to the buyer by a bank or mortgage company and then paid off over time by the buyer. While a common down payment amount is 20% of the purchase price of a home, down payments are often more or less than 20% of the purchase price. The percent of the purchase price of a home that is paid as a down payment will impact the monthly payment amount on your mortgage. By using the house down payment calculator below you’ll be able to determine what your monthly mortgage payment will be based on your down payment amount under scenarios you select, using a fixed rate mortgage loan.

What are Closing Costs When Buying a Home?
Closing costs when purchasing a home are the other up front payment buyers have to make besides the down payment. As the name suggests, closing costs are paid at closing and usually include a range of fees and costs including homeowner’s insurance, title insurance, inspection fee, appraisal fee, survey fees, and any points the homebuyer is paying on their loan.
