Fixed Rate Mortgage Amortization Example
For the purposes of this example, we'll look at a $275,000 30 year fixed mortgage at a 6.5% interest rate. When you press the Amortize button, you'll see how little the principal balance changes in the early months of the mortgage and how much of it changes in the final years of the mortgage. This is why extra payments made early on can result in great savings. Click on the Amortize button in the form below to see the example results or enter your own information.
