How is my monthly payment calculated?

Monthly payments use the amortization formula that factors in principal, interest rate, and loan term to calculate equal payments over the life of the loan.

Should I choose a shorter or longer loan term?

Shorter terms have higher monthly payments but lower total interest. Longer terms are more affordable monthly but cost more overall.

What factors affect my interest rate?

Credit score, loan amount, loan term, down payment, and current market conditions all influence your rate.
