AI summary
Understand your potential mortgage costs with Trade Me's mortgage calculator. This tool helps estimate your monthly repayments so you know what to expect before buying.
Your payments are determined by three main factors: the loan amount, interest rate, and mortgage term. Other key influences include your chosen rate type (fixed vs. floating) and the size of your deposit.
A larger deposit reduces your loan, while a longer term lowers monthly payments but increases the total interest paid over time.
