Refinance Calculator - Mortgage - Help/Information

When assessing if you should refinance your mortgage, you will need to consider both the difference in monthly costs associated with the refinancing, the total long term cost of refinancing as well as the different terms of the two loans. This mortgage refinance calculator will help give an indication of the feasibility of refinancing your loan. The refinance calculator takes a number of pieces of information about your current mortgage and the loan you would use to refinance with and will return information that can help determine if the refinancing is a viable option.

The inputs to the calculator are as follows:

For your current mortgage:
  1. Your current mortgages principle balance: This is the balance of your current mortgage at the point of refinancing.
  2. Your current amount of principle and interest monthly mortgage repayments.
  3. Your current mortgage's interest rate.
For the new refinancing mortgage, you should input the refinancing interest rate and the number of years for the refinancing loan.

As mortgages often have closing costs, this needs to be accounted for in the comparison. You can input your mortgages closing costs in terms of percentage points (that is closing costs in terms of a percentage of the principle) or simply a fixed cost. You chould also indicate if you wish to finance the closing costs.

Once you compute the results, the calculator will return:

  1. How much your new monthly payment will be after refinancing, allowing you to compare the monthly cost to your current mortgage.
  2. The total reduction in your monthly payment as a result of refinancing.
  3. How many months will it take for the savings in interest costs to offset the cost of closing your current mortgage.
  4. The total interest you will pay under both the current mortgage and the refinancing option.
  5. The total saving in interest associated with refinancing and the net refinancing saving including both interest savings and refinance costs.
