Your total interest on a $150,000 mortgage

On a 30-year $150,000 mortgage with a 7.00% fixed interest rate, you may pay $209,263 in interest over the loan’s life. If you instead opt for a 15-year mortgage, you might pay around $92,684 in interest over the loan’s life — or about half of the interest you’d pay on a 30-year mortgage.

Amortization schedule

When you take out a mortgage, you agree to pay the principal and interest over the loan’s life. Your interest rate is applied to your balance, and as you pay down your balance, the amount you pay in interest changes.

Amortization means that at the beginning of your loan, a big percentage of your payment is applied to interest. With each subsequent payment, you pay more toward your principal.

Estimate your monthly loan repayments on a $150,000 mortgage at a 7.00% fixed interest with our amortization schedule over 15 and 30 years.
