Estimates only. Taxes and insurance vary by Florida county and property. Excludes HOA dues and any mortgage insurance. Subject to credit approval.
This calculator estimates your total monthly housing cost, not just principal and interest. Most lenders look at the full PITI figure — principal, interest, taxes, and insurance — when they decide how much you qualify for.
Adjust the down payment, rate, and term to see how each lever changes your payment. A larger down payment lowers the loan amount, while a shorter term raises the monthly payment but cuts total interest sharply.
How to Use This Calculator

Choose your loan term, then adjust the property tax and insurance rates to match your Florida county.

The Formula & Assumptions
Monthly P&I = L × [ r(1+r)^n ] / [ (1+r)^n − 1 ]
L = loan amount (price − down payment)
r = monthly rate (annual rate ÷ 12)
n = number of payments (years × 12)
Total = P&I + monthly tax + monthly insurance
The principal-and-interest portion uses the standard amortizing-loan formula. Property tax and insurance are estimated as a yearly percentage of the home price, divided by twelve.
Florida property tax rates vary by county and homestead status, and homeowners insurance can run higher near the coast. Treat the tax and insurance figures as starting estimates and confirm with your county appraiser and an insurance agent.
This tool excludes HOA or condo association dues and any mortgage insurance (PMI or FHA MIP). Use the PMI calculator to layer those in.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in a monthly mortgage payment?
A typical payment includes four parts known as PITI: principal, interest, property taxes, and homeowners insurance. If you put less than 20% down, mortgage insurance is usually added, and a condo or HOA community adds association dues.
How much should my down payment be?
Conventional loans can start at 3% down and FHA loans at 3.5%, while VA and USDA loans allow zero down for eligible buyers. Putting 20% down on a conventional loan removes private mortgage insurance, which lowers your payment.
Are the property tax and insurance numbers accurate for Florida?
They are estimates. Florida property taxes vary by county and depend on whether you claim the homestead exemption, and insurance premiums are higher in coastal and flood-prone areas. Confirm both with local sources before you budget.
Does this calculator show my interest rate?
No. The rate you enter is illustrative. Your actual rate depends on your credit score, loan program, down payment, and current market conditions. Request a personalized quote for a real figure.
