Met w/ a Mortgage Broker this evening. I asked what their 30yr Fixed rates were and was told 6.125% and zero points.

Would someone please explain how a $300,000.00 loan @ 6.125 = $2480 a month payment?

My math tells me the payment should be $1821 and change. Did I do the math incorrectly?

$2480 a month to pay off a $300,000.00 is over 9.3 % correct?

Please confirm I'm doing the math right

Thanks

You are correct. I have it calculated at $1,822.83/month.


To get to the payment being quoted on a 30 year amortization the rate would have to be 9.3%.

In thinking about it further is is possible the payment they gave you includes taxes, insurance, and mortgage insurance?

That could be the difference between the numbers your seeing.

chris that was my first instinct - to assume that our poster was quoted piti rather than simply the p&i payment.

then again, you never know...
