I am having a fixed rate mortgage for $250,000 at 6.25% for 30 years – how much is the monthly payment?
Answer:A fixed rate mortgage for $250,000 at 6.25% for 30 years makes a monthly payment around $1540. This is only principal and interest. Taxes and insurance will add up to that figure.
Calculating Fixed Rate Mortgage Monthly Payment
Use online mortgage calculators to get a feel for your monthly mortgage payments. Fixed rate mortgage payments calculators are widely available. Even if different calculators show slightly different amounts for the fixed payment, the difference should not be abrupt.
Of course, having the loan officer run the numbers for you is always an option.
Also, freeware mortgage payment calculation software may be downloaded online. Mortgage software products can be great tools for the borrower to calculate not only fixed rate mortgage monthly payment, but also the monthly payment for more complex mortgage products.
Our advice: Be sure to ask your lender about FHA loans. FHA loans have very competitive interest rates because the loans are insured by the US Federal Government. Even if you have had serious credit problems, such as bankruptcy, it is easier to qualify for an FHA loan than a conventional loan. Also, taking an FIXED rate loan while the interest rates are still low is a smart idea. Check your eligibility here:
