The Truth About Mortgage Interest Rates (Hint: They Could Be Costing You $100,000s)

How Home Mortgage Interest is Calculated & Why You Need to Know

With mortgage interest rates dropping to historical lows, investing in a new home seems like a no-brainer.

Like many buyers, you want to seize the opportunity before it’s too late. You’ve found a loan that suits your budget, and the rest seems pretty straightforward, right?

Not quite. Because ultra-low interest rates are so attractive, many people fail to realize how mortgage interest rates are calculated.

Unexpected fees could mean thousands of dollars out of your pocket and into the lender’s.

So, stick around as we explain how mortgage interest rates are calculated, the fees you may not be aware of, and what you can do to keep your new investment—and your finances—from becoming a nightmare.

Understanding Your Interest Rate Calculation

Lenders run on your interest payments. That’s how they make their money.

When you decide to take out a mortgage, the lender is taking a risk to issue the loan. So, the lenders charge interest, which you then have to pay back plus the cost of the loan itself.

First, you’ll need to receive a mortgage pre-approval from your bank. After a review of your credit score and other financial documents, you’ll receive an initial estimate of your interest rate and your loan amount (a.k.a. the principal payment).

Keep in mind, this estimate is not a final determination, and your interest rate may increase once other fees are included.

Your initial interest rate estimate is determined in part by your down payment. The minimum payment for mortgage loans is typically 20% of your loan.

This estimate depends heavily on your credit score too. Generally, if your credit score is higher your interest rate will be lower.

A lower credit score usually means you’ll pay a higher interest rate, and even higher monthly payments to your lender.

What You’ll Actually Pay

So, let’s say you take out a $350,000 loan at a 3.0% interest rate. Even with a 20% down payment of $70,000, your total payment over a 30-year period will amount to $534,600.

When your mortgage payments finally end, you’ll have paid about $184,693 to the lender on top of your initial loan!

And if you have a bad credit score, you can expect your interest payment calculation to be much higher. On a mortgage payment with a 600-629 credit score, the interest you’ll pay skyrockets to an estimated $269,181.

Other Factors and Fees

(Extra Fees and Other Considerations)?

That’s an awfully high payout for the lender, right? Well, you’re not done handing over your cash yet.

On top of the hundreds of thousands of dollars you may have to pay in interest, lenders include other factors that can drive up your interest rate even further.

Your Loan Term

Take another look at what you’ll actually pay.

Even with an interest rate that seems affordable, your total cost could be through the roof. This is due to the loan term.

Sure, you’ll end up paying smaller monthly payments with a long-term loan, but all that interest adds up.

So, a 15-year loan term must be the better option then—a shorter term means less time for interest to accrue and less interest for you to pay off later, right?

Unfortunately, it’s not that simple.

Monthly payments for 15-year terms are often 50% higher than long-term loans.

The fact is, life is unpredictable. We can’t predict what expenses might appear next. And paying off an expensive mortgage means less money in your account for emergencies.

What Does All This Mean For You?

There’s a lot more to your mortgage interest rate calculation than finances and a credit score. Buying a house is a real challenge, and loan lenders don’t make things any easier…

Securing a loan and navigating the complex world of mortgage interest rates can seem impossible, especially while working full-time and supporting your family.

Plus, by the time you’re done studying the ins and outs of interest rate calculations and home mortgages, interest rates may be on the rise once again.
