Of course
you can whip out your pen and paper, Calculator, bills and income statements
and do it the good old fashion way. But the internet has helped lessen the
hassle with the use of online home loan calculators. These home loan
calculators are online tools which can be found on many bank and insurance
sites, they are quick and easy to use, and can be used to calculate a variety
of aspects relating to your home loan. You can calculate what loan amount you
qualify for. You can calculate how fast you can pay off your loan by increasing
your monthly payments. And you can even calculate how much it will cost you to
transfer your existing home loan to another bank.
Let's say
for instance that you are looking to purchase your first home. Your first step
would be finding out how big a bond you can afford based on your income and
expenses, applicable interest rates and preferred term. By going on line you
can choose a home loan calculator from one of many sites. If you prefer to take
out a bond with your bank then check out their site first. You will be
presented with a questionnaire type form, and all you have to do is fill in the
amounts of money. There will be different sections on this form such as;
income- salary and rental income, expenses- house hold, transport, insurance
policies and other. Then fill in the applicable interest rate, and the
preferred term. There are also some other amounts which need to be filled in.
Once you have filled in all the fields you just have to click calculate, and
it's done!
Once you
have established your loan amount you can then use the monthly repayment
calculator, which will calculate your monthly repayments based on the loan
amount, the preferred term and the interest rates.

Another
home loan calculator which is very useful, is the increased installment
calculator. You can calculate how much money you can save by increasing your
installments every month. So by paying more on your bond every month you can
save on interest and shorten the amount of time spent paying your bond.
Now as I
have said before all of these calculations can be made the good old fashion way
with paper and pen, but why go the long, and tiresome route when online home
loan calculators make calculating quicker and easier!
