The short version: these are estimates built from your inputs, not offers. Here is exactly how they are calculated, where the assumptions come from, and what happens to what you enter.

Educational purpose
The calculators and information on this website are for educational and illustrative purposes only. Results are estimates based on the information and assumptions entered and are not a loan offer, commitment to lend, financial advice or guarantee of eligibility, rates, costs or savings. Actual loan terms, rates, fees, mortgage insurance and qualification requirements vary by borrower, property, lender and loan program. Speak with a licensed mortgage professional for personalized information.
Nothing on this site is an advertisement of specific terms, a rate lock, a pre-approval, or a determination of eligibility. It is also not tax, legal or investment advice.
How the calculators work
Payments and balances are produced from standard amortization math applied to the values you enter. Nothing is estimated by an AI model and no result is randomized.
Mortgage insurance is modeled from published pricing structures: FHA charges an upfront premium plus an annual premium that depends on loan-to-value, term and loan amount, while conventional private mortgage insurance is priced from loan-to-value and credit tier and ends once the required equity is reached.
Buy-versus-rent comparisons invest the buyer's cash for the renter at the return you specify, grow rent at the rate you specify, and reduce the owner's proceeds by the selling costs you specify. Changing those assumptions can change the conclusion, which is the point of showing them.
The AI assistant
The Ask feature explains mortgage concepts in plain language. It is not permitted to calculate figures: every number it can quote is computed first by the deterministic calculators and passed to it as fixed facts.
It cannot tell you whether you qualify, quote a rate, or determine your program eligibility. Those depend on underwriting, current program rules and a full review of your circumstances.
Rates and program rules
Market rate references are survey averages published by third parties and are labeled with the date they were published. An average is not a quote, and your rate depends on your credit profile, the property, the loan program, points and the market at the time you lock.
Loan limits, mortgage insurance pricing and program requirements change. Figures used here are labeled with a source and date; confirm current rules for your situation before relying on them.
What we do with your information
Calculator inputs stay in your browser. They are stored locally so your numbers follow you between calculators, and they are only transmitted if you submit a request for a review or save a scenario.
Shared and saved scenario links contain only calculator inputs — never your name, email address, phone number, credit details or other personal information.
If you submit a request, the information you provide plus the scenario you were viewing is stored so your questions can be answered accurately. It is used to respond to you, not sold.
