Planning estimate, not lender approval. Property values, allowable CLTV, costs and underwriting requirements vary. Taxes, insurance and existing mortgage payments are not part of this second-loan payment.

Method, worked explanation & limitations
  1. This is a fixed-term loan: the entered proceeds are borrowed at origination, unlike an unused revolving credit limit.
  2. Configured capacity = max(0, home value × max CLTV − existing secured balances). Financed fees count toward new principal and combined LTV.
  3. Monthly payment = P × i / [1−(1+i)^−n], with i = nominal annual percentage / 1200; at zero interest use P/n. Only monthly payments are modeled.
  4. Payment and each month’s interest are rounded to cents; principal follows from that payment. Extra principal is capped at the remaining balance; the last installment clears the balance. Cash-paid fees are not charged interest or counted twice.

Frequently asked questions

How does this differ from a HELOC?

This is a fixed-term loan with all entered proceeds borrowed at origination. It does not model a revolving unused credit line or a separate interest-only draw period.

What principal is used when closing fees are financed?

The initial principal equals loan proceeds plus financed closing fees. That principal is also counted toward combined LTV. Cash-paid fees instead remain outside the amortized principal and receive no loan interest.

How is the regular payment calculated?

For monthly nominal rate i and n payments, M = P times i divided by 1 minus (1+i) raised to -n. At zero interest, M = P/n. This implementation explicitly supports monthly payments only.

What happens when a request exceeds the CLTV assumption?

The calculator validates new principal, including financed fees, against property value times the configured CLTV minus existing secured balances. Exceeding that assumption is rejected rather than described as approved borrowing.

How do extra principal payments affect payoff?

Extra principal is applied after the regular payment and capped at the remaining balance. The schedule stops at zero and is compared with the same loan without extra principal to estimate interest and period savings.

What rounding and cost assumptions apply?

Regular payments and each month’s interest are rounded to cents; the final installment clears any remaining balance. Total cost includes modeled payments plus cash-paid closing fees, without adding financed fees twice. Taxes and ownership costs are excluded.
