How to calculate mortgage interest 

A simple way to calculate the interest on your mortgage is to:

1. First, find your outstanding mortgage balance and current mortgage interest rate
2. Then divide your current mortgage interest rate by 100, giving you a decimal figure.
3. Now multiply your outstanding mortgage amount by the decimal figure.
4. And finally, divide the number you get by 12.

The number you have calculated is the amount of interest you’ll pay on your next monthly mortgage repayment. 

For example, let’s say your outstanding mortgage loan amount is £150,000 and your interest rate is 5%.

To work out how much interest you’ll pay in the coming month, the calculation is:

• 5 ÷ 100 = 0.05
• £150,000 x 0.05 = £7,500
• £7,500 ÷ 12 = £625. 

So your next monthly mortgage repayment will include £625 in mortgage interest. Note that if you have a capital repayment mortgage, where some of the original mortgage is also paid back each month, your overall monthly mortgage repayment will be higher to account for this too. 

With the alternative of an interest-only mortgage, you just pay the interest on your mortgage every month. However, you’ll need a plan in place to pay off your original loan amount when your mortgage ends.

Calculating how much interest you pay on a mortgage overall

Working out how much interest you’d pay on a mortgage in total is more difficult to calculate manually yourself. This is because your outstanding mortgage decreases every month with a typical capital repayment mortgage. It’s also unlikely that you’ll pay the same interest rate for the entire duration of your mortgage. 

However, a mortgage lender will still give you an estimate of the total interest payable on a given mortgage deal based on certain assumptions. Our mortgage interest calculator can give you a similar idea of how much interest you will pay.

Using the NerdWallet mortgage interest rate calculator 

Our mortgage interest rate calculator can be used to compare the interest and repayments payable across different interest rates and mortgage terms. It can also be used to get an idea of how mortgage repayments may change if interest rates were to rise or fall. 

The calculator is intended as a guide only and relies on certain assumptions. It is based on your mortgage rate remaining the same for the duration of your mortgage, which isn’t likely to happen. Always speak to your current mortgage lender for details of how interest rate changes might affect your mortgage repayments before comparing deals from other lenders or brokers.

Are mortgage interest rates calculated daily or monthly?

This depends on your lender and particular mortgage, so you’d need to check with them directly to confirm either way. A daily interest mortgage sees the amount of interest you’re charged recalculated each day based on your outstanding mortgage debt. So if you overpay on your mortgage, you may pay less interest due to your outstanding mortgage coming down quicker than if you have a monthly interest mortgage, where the interest you pay is calculated once a month. 

What happens if interest rates rise or fall?

If interest rates rise or fall and you have a fixed-rate mortgage deal, your mortgage repayments should stay the same for as long as you’re within your initial fixed-rate period. However, if you have a tracker mortgage or are paying your lender’s standard variable rate (SVR), there’s a good chance your monthly repayments will change if interest rates change.

Mortgage repayments on these variable rate mortgages can become more expensive if interest rates rise and cheaper if they fall – though interest rate fluctuations are not always passed on immediately to borrowers. Mortgage rates generally can be influenced by a wide range of factors, including changes in the Bank of England base rate or because of varying levels of competition between lenders.

How to Remortgage to Consolidate Debt

Remortgaging to consolidate debt involves borrowing more on your mortgage to pay off other debts. This can make it easier to manage debt and could help lower your combined monthly debt repayments. However, more debt is secured against your home and you could end up paying more interest overall.

How to Remortgage to Pay for Home Improvements

Remortgaging to pay for home improvements or an extension may be an option if you have sufficient equity in your property and can prove to your lender a larger mortgage is affordable.
