Quick guide
How to use this calculator
- Enter the figures from your mortgage offer, statement, contract, property budget, or scenario.
- Keep currencies, rate conventions, periods, and balances consistent; compare multiple plausible scenarios where future rates or costs are uncertain.
- Use the component outputs to verify the result and review the calculator-specific boundary before acting.
Calculation method
Calculation method
At each reset, target rate = index + margin, then apply the floor, periodic up/down cap, and lifetime increase cap before re-amortizing.
Mortgage schedules use stable level-payment arithmetic and advance only the explicitly entered scenario. Results are checked for finite, principal-reducing behavior and round only for display.
Worked example
Practical example
Model three annual resets after a five-year initial period.
At each reset, target rate = index + margin, then apply the floor, periodic up/down cap, and lifetime increase cap before re-amortizing.
Supported inputs
Precision and limits
Visible input limits
Amounts are capped at 1e12, rates at 1000% unless a narrower percentage applies, and schedules at 1,200 months unless a frequency comparison explicitly documents more payment periods.
International scope
No currency, country, tax system, mortgage program, lender threshold, insurance rule, market rate, escrow law, or contract term is assumed.
Decision boundary
These are arithmetic scenarios, not offers, approvals, regulated disclosures, forecasts, valuations, legal interpretations, hardship advice, or recommendations.
Calculator-specific assumptions
This models three visitor-entered reset stages, not a rate forecast. Confirm exact index dates, rounding, caps, floors, carryover, payment caps, and contract language.
