Mortgage Loan Types
The calculator uses annuity repayment, where the monthly payment is constant, but the principal and interest ratio changes over time. This is the most common mortgage loan type in Hungary.
Loan Planning Tips
- The larger the down payment, the lower the monthly payment will be
- A longer term means lower monthly payments but more interest
- A shorter term means higher monthly payments but less interest
- It is worth comparing offers from multiple banks
- Don't forget additional costs (insurance, administrative fees)
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between principal and interest?
The principal is the original loan amount, and the interest is the bank's fee for lending the money. The monthly payment is always principal + interest, but their ratio changes over time.
Why is the down payment important?
The down payment reduces the loan amount, resulting in lower monthly payments and less interest. The minimum down payment is typically 10-20% for home loans.
How does the interest rate affect repayment?
A higher interest rate means higher monthly payments and more interest. Therefore, it is important to choose a favorable interest rate and monitor interest rate changes.
