can someone explain to me a simple formula to find a monthly mortgage payment?

For example what’s the monthly mortgage payment for $126,900 home at 5.5% interest rate, on a FHA 30 yr fixed.
A written out formula would be really helpful thanks!!!

    There are online calculators, but basically, it’s going to be about 1% of the amount you borrow.

    Your mortgage payment will differ slightly than the simple interest formulas that are out there. Your mortgage payment will most likely include principal, interest, taxes, MIP (mortgage insurance premium).

    If you gather the amount of taxes due or paid on the residence in the past year, that’s how much you’ll need to have in escrow. Also, calculate 1 to 1.25% of your principal in MIP. Add all of this plus principal and interest and you have your monthly mortgage payment.

    Sounds like a lot doesn’t it?

    Excellent luck!

    Here’s a better deal than a formula – google “mortgage calculator” or go to http://www.bankrate.com/calculators/mortgages/mortgage-calculator.aspx and key in the info – then you can use it for any amount, any rate, and it’ll do the math for you

    if you have a factor chart http://www.harpfinancial.com/AmortizationChart.htm

    you can figure out any principle/interest payment.

    formula:

    126,900*96.5% loan = 122,460 loan (assuming a 3.5% downpayment)

    loan amount/1000 * factor = payment

    122,460/1000 = 122.46*5.68 = 695.57 a month

    PLUS you would need to add the taxes and fire insurance each month
    PLUS you will also have MI insurance.
