📊 Payment Breakdown

Metric Amount % of Price

How the formula works

Down Payment = Home Price × (Down Payment % ÷ 100)  |  Loan Amount = Home Price − Down Payment
  • Down Payment = Amount paid upfront (typically 5-20% of home price)
  • Loan Amount = Home Price − Down Payment
  • Monthly Payment = [Loan Amount × (r/12) × (1 + r/12)^n] / [(1 + r/12)^n − 1]
  • Total Interest = (Monthly Payment × n) − Loan Amount
  • A higher down payment = lower monthly payment and less interest
