Mortgage Refinance Calculator
This refinance calculator helps determine if you should refinance or not.
By refinancing, your monthly mortgage savings are shown below:
| Existing Loan | New Loan | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Loan Amount | ||||
| Interest rate (%) | ||||
| Loan Period | ||||
| Scheduled Number Of Payments | ||||
| How many months have been paid? | ||||
| Monthly Mortgage payment | (1) | (2) | ||
| Monthly Mortgage savings (2) - (1) | ||||
Here's the TOTAL picture of refinancing:
| Existing Loan | New Loan | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Loan Amount | (1) | ||||
| Interest rate (%) | (2) | (3) | |||
| Interest rate reduction with new loan (2) - (3) | |||||
| Loan Period | |||||
| Scheduled Number Of Payments | (4) | ||||
| How many months have been paid? | (5) | ||||
| Monthly Mortgage payment | (6) | (7) | |||
| Monthly Mortgage savings (8) = (7) - (6) | (8) | ||||
| Current existing loan balance | |||||
| Total amount to be paid with the existing loan (if no refinance) | (9) | ||||
| Amounts already paid on existing loan | (10) ( principal + interest) | ||||
Now I need to add the refinance (closing) cost to the picture. There are 2 parts to the refinance (closing) cost:
| Part 1: Interest to be paid during the refinance process | ||
|---|---|---|
| Unpaid interest on Existing Loan (1 month) | ||
| Prepaid interest on New Loan (1 month) | ||
| Part 1 subtotal | ||
| Part 2: Refinance processing fees | ||

New loan points and lender costs on new loan * (Get the number from your lender) |

| Other refinance costs ** | ||
| Part 2 subtotal | ||
| Total refinance (closing) cost | (11) | |
* The default is 1.25% of the new loan amount
** Appraisal, credit report, tax service, flood certificate, processing fee, title insurance, escrow fee, notary fee, etc.
