Short answers to the common questions people ask before using the tool.
It gives you a quick estimate of deposit amount, loan size, monthly payment, and total repayment based on the property price, deposit, rate, term, and mortgage type you choose.
No. This is a planning tool. A lender will also look at income, spending, credit profile, and stress-tested affordability before deciding how much it is prepared to lend.
Use repayment if you want to model the most common residential mortgage structure. Interest-only is mainly useful if you want to compare the lower monthly payment against the fact that the capital still has to be repaid later.
Yes. Even a modest rate change or a longer term can noticeably change both the monthly payment and the total interest paid, which is why it helps to test a few versions before treating one result as fixed.
