Use this calculator to compare discounted mortgage rate offers, the costs or benefits of assuming existing mortgage financing, or calculating the Interest Rate Differential and payout penalty on your mortgage.

A $ 100,000 mortgage at current market rates of 7 % with a 36 month term and 300 month amortization results in monthly payments of $ 700 and a balance at term maturity of $ 95,000.

A lower than market mortgage rate of 6 % would result in a payment that is $ 61 lower each month and a balance at term maturity that is also $ 734 lower. The present value of the differences in payments with this beneficial financing is $ 2,563.

You would be BETTER OFF with the 6 % mortgage by a Present Value of $ 2,563.
