Mortgage estimator

A rough monthly figure to compare homes with. It uses an example rate and your inputs – it is not a lending offer, and no one contacts you after using it.

Your numbers

Estimate

$3,277 / month

principal + interest on a $518,400 loan at 6.5% for 30 years. With example tax and insurance, the all-in figure is about $3,755 / month.

Estimates are illustrative and depend on lender terms. This is not a lending offer, and PrimeNest does not arrange loans.

What the number includes

Principal and interest from your inputs; example tax and insurance are added separately when you fill them in.

What it leaves out

HOA fees, utilities, closing costs and any lender fees are not part of this figure.

Why an example rate

Rates move daily and belong to the lender. The 6.50% default is an illustration you can change.

How to read it

A comparison tool, not a quote

Use it to line two saved homes up against each other. Your lender will price the real thing.

  1. 1Open a listing and hit “Adjust the numbers” – the price is filled in for you.
  2. 2Move the down payment and term until the monthly figure reflects your plan.
  3. 3Compare two saved homes on the same assumptions before you book viewings.

Questions we get

Do you connect me to a lender?

No. We do not arrange loans and do not pass your inputs to anyone.

Why did my figure change?

Rates, terms and down payments are the levers – a longer term lowers the monthly number but raises total interest.

Is this a pre-approval?

No. Pre-approval comes from a lender underwriting your finances; this is arithmetic on your inputs.

Can I use a real rate?

Yes – type the rate your lender quoted and the estimate updates.

Estimates are illustrative and depend on lender terms. This tool is not a lending offer, quote or pre-approval, and no guarantee of any outcome is made or implied.
