A live mortgage & amortization calculator. Adjust the price, rate, and term — watch the monthly payment, total interest, and loan balance respond. When you're ready, email yourself a copy and we'll talk through the rest.
Early on, almost every dollar goes to interest — the bank's cut for lending you the money. As principal pays down, that ratio flips. The dashed line is what you still owe; the bands are what you've paid so far.
Mortgage A document offering the real estate as collateral for repayment of a debt. The bank loans you the money; the property secures the loan.
Amortization The process by which loan principal and interest are repaid through a fixed installment plan — same payment each month, changing mix inside.
