Mortgage Calculator
Our flagship mortgage payment calculator estimates your full monthly payment — principal, interest, property taxes, homeowners insurance, PMI, and HOA dues — with a complete amortization schedule. It’s the foundation for every state and specialty calculator on this page, so start here if you’re not sure which tool fits your loan scenario.

Every state has its own property tax rates, transfer taxes, and homestead rules that change your true monthly payment. Pick your state below for a mortgage calculator tuned to local tax and insurance assumptions.
All Mortgage Calculator Tools
Beyond the standard payment calculator, these specialty tools break down amortization, refinancing, loan programs (FHA, VA, USDA), loan term, and buyer-specific scenarios like first-time purchases, investment property, and manufactured homes.
Methodology & Editorial Standards
Calculation basis: every calculator on this hub uses standard PITI methodology (Principal, Interest, Taxes, Insurance) with optional PMI and HOA, consistent with guidance published by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and FHFA conforming loan limits for 2026. Rates shown inside individual calculators are illustrative defaults — actual rates depend on your credit profile, loan program, and lender.
Editorial standards: each calculator’s assumptions are checked against primary sources — FHFA, CFPB, and Freddie Mac — rather than secondary summaries, and are revisited whenever those sources publish updated figures. This page and its linked calculators are maintained independently of any lender or loan originator, so results reflect standard industry formulas rather than a promoted product.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Each state calculator on this hub uses that state’s average effective property tax rate as a starting default, since property taxes can differ by more than 2 percentage points between states like Hawaii and New Jersey. You can always override the default with your own county or parcel tax rate for a more precise monthly payment estimate.
The main Mortgage Calculator uses national default assumptions for taxes and insurance, which is useful for a quick, generic estimate anywhere in the U.S. The state calculators swap those defaults for state-specific property tax rates, typical homeowners insurance costs, and, where relevant, state transfer or recording taxes — giving you a payment estimate that’s closer to what you’d actually pay.
Start with the FHA, VA, or USDA Mortgage Calculator that matches the government-backed loan you’re pre-approved for or expect to qualify for, since each program has different down payment minimums, mortgage insurance rules, and eligibility requirements. For a conventional loan, the main Mortgage Calculator with PMI toggled on gives an accurate comparison point.
Yes. PMI is built into the dedicated Mortgage Calculator With PMI, and HOA dues can be added as a line item inside the main calculator and most state calculators. Closing costs are handled separately in the dedicated Mortgage Closing Cost Calculator, since closing costs are a one-time expense rather than part of your recurring monthly payment.
State property tax defaults, FHFA conforming loan limits, and typical insurance assumptions are reviewed at least annually, and sooner if a state changes its tax rate or the FHFA updates conforming loan limits mid-year. The “Reviewed for accuracy” date in the header reflects the last full review.
Open the 30 Year Mortgage Calculator, then layer in the Mortgage Calculator With Extra Payments to add extra principal toward your loan. This shows exactly how many years and how much interest you’d save by paying it down faster, which is more flexible than a fixed-term-only calculator since you can test any payoff timeline rather than just 15 or 20 years.
