How to calculate my mortgage fee

When you want to calculate the rate of your mortgage, the first thing is to know what type of mortgage you have, whether at a fixed rate or a variable rate. Fixed rate mortgages are those whose interest and monthly installment are the same throughout the life of the mortgage loan. Variable rate mortgages are characterized because the mortgage rate varies every 6 or 12 months. This occurs because the interest is calculated from a reference rate plus a differential (for example, euribor + 0.50). As the value of the reference rate is variable, periodically (semi-annually or annually) the entity makes a revision of the interest rate (which increases or decreases depending on the value that is taken from the index) and depending on the new interest rate is calculated a new monthly fee.

If we want to know the value of the mortgage payment that we will have to pay, we must follow the steps indicated below.

Once you have inserted the necessary data, click on calculate to obtain the value of the fee that you will pay during the following 6 or 12 months.
