Using the Down Payment Calculator
A higher down payment reduces your monthly mortgage and can eliminate the need for Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI). This tool helps you find the optimal down payment for your home purchase, balancing your available cash against long-term interest savings.
How it Works
1
Enter the purchase price of the home.
2
Input your target down payment percentage or dollar amount.
3
Review the impact on your monthly principal and interest.
4
Check the "PMI Trigger" indicator to see if you meet the 20% threshold.
