1. Find your interest rate. Bankrate.com is a good source for the current market rates, or you can get quotes from mortgage lenders. For this example, I will use 6% (which is 0.06 as a decimal).
2. Divide this number by 12. 6%/12 = 0.06/12 = 0.005 (or 0.5%)
3. Add 1 to this number. (.005 + 1 = 1.005)
4.Determine the number of months you want for your mortgage. If you are looking at a 30 year mortgage, then you will want your morgage for (30 * 12 = ) 360 months. 1.005 ^ 360 = 6.02257521
5. Divide one by this number. 1/6.02257521 = 0.166
6. Subtract this number from one. 1 - 0.166 = 0.834
7. Divide this number by the number you found in step 2 (the interest rate divided by 12). 0.834 / 0.005 = 166.792
8. Finally, divide the amount of the mortgage by this amount. So, let's assume you are buying a home worth $200,000. You put $40,000 as a down payment. Your mortgage is worth ($200,000 - $40,000 = ) $160,000. So, $160,000 / 166.792 = 959.28
9.Understand the figure above - which is what most online calculators will give you. It is only for principal and interest. It does not include insurance and taxes - the escrow account which is often included in your payment. Although your house payment is officially $959.28, your actual monthly payment might be $1,200 when including insurance and taxes.
