$4,355.54/mo

A $500,000 mortgage at 6.5% over 15 years costs $4,355.54 a month in principal and interest.

How it is worked out

The standard amortising payment formula. It covers principal and interest only — property tax, insurance and any HOA or service charge are separate, and together they often add a fifth again to the monthly figure.

$500,000 × i(1+i)^n ÷ ((1+i)^n − 1), with i = 6.5% ÷ 12 and n = 15 × 12 = $4,355.54

Over the full term you repay $783,997, of which $283,997 is interest — 57% of the amount borrowed.
