203k Loan: Mortgage Calculator

By Kimberly Shane

203k Loan Mortgage CalculatorThere are so many options out there for calculating your mortgage payment with plugging in just a few figures; the loan amount, interest rate, and the life of the loan.

When it comes to mortgages from a renovation loan, like the FHA 203k Loan, the concept is the same but how we achieve the loan amount is a bit different. Typically, the loan amount is calculated by subtracting the down payment from the purchase price but when calculating the loan amount for a 203k Loan we must factor in the renovation costs. Below we’ve included an equation to provide a general calculation of a 203k loan amount, as well as, a list of average home renovation costs when considering estimations for your renovation budget.

To calculate the loan amount

Purchase Price + Renovation Budget + (Renovation Budget x 10%)= Loan Costs

Loan Costs x 3.5%= Down Payment

Loan Costs – Down Payment= Loan Amount
