Your Monthly Mortgage Payments is

Purchasing a home is a large financial move – meaning that in order to get onto the property ladder, you’ll most likely need to borrow some money. That’s where mortgages come in.
When buying a home in the UK, you’ll usually be required to put down a cash deposit upfront – but this only covers a fraction of the property value (typically between 5 to 20%). To pay for the remainder of the cost, you’ll most likely need to successfully apply for a mortgage: a long-term, high-value property loan generally provided by a bank or building society. After the keys are in your hands, you’ll be required to pay the money you borrowed plus interest back in monthly instalments over a predetermined number of years.
The amount you’ll pay back monthly will depend on a number of factors, including the type of mortgage chosen, the amount borrowed, and the loan provider.
Want evidence of how much you can afford to borrow? A mortgage in principle is the perfect step up from online calculators – offering a more accurate result, and documentation designed to stake your claim as a serious and capable buyer.
We’ll put together a comprehensive document accurately demonstrating your borrowing potential for no additional cost – helping put you in a good position to make an offer the seller can’t refuse.

I had so many questions and unknowns about buying my first home but none of them were too silly for Martin to answer. He helped me with finding the mortgage lender that suited me and did all the paperwork upfront, so to make everything run smoothly later on. He advised me with insurance and gave me me guidance and updates every step of the way. For me, Martin made buying my first home an exciting experience, not a stressful one and I would recommend him every time. Thank you.

Martin Bright has been exceptional throughout a long and convoluted process. After three attempts at securing a house (and three mortgage searches), Martin was patient and professional, always happy to help and always finding a better deal than I thought possible. He explains things clearly and puts forward his thoughts and justifications in a very considered way. I have a 5yr fix at 0.9%. Which beggars belief really! Fantastic outcome, brilliant service and a thoroughly nice chap all round. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend, and I already have done to a couple of friends looking to secure their own mortgages.

Martin and his team were always quick to respond from mortgage application through to completion. He provided valuable advice and insight throughout, especially during the economic downturn and rapid rises with interest rates, and secured us a great deal with a lightning fast turnaround. Also, Adelle made obtaining Life and Financial Protection insurance super easy – allowing us time to look through the deals she prepared and was always willing to explain complex or unfamiliar terms to us. When we end up moving house in the future – I’m sure I’ll be giving Fees Free Mortgages a call.

Understanding your potential mortgage repayment costs is hugely important. It’s possible to calculate your mortgage payments by hand using the equation Mortgage = P[i(1+i)^n] / [(1+i)^n-1] where p= principle amount, i = monthly interest rate, and n = the loan term in months – but there’s plenty of room for human error in this method. That’s why we’ve developed a simple online mortgage payment calculator, designed to show you how much your selected deal will cost you per month. It takes into account the amount of money you’re borrowing, the interest rates and fees of the mortgage deal you’ve selected, and the mortgage term – or how long you’ll be making payments for.
Mortgage payments consist of two main elements – principle payments, and interest payments. The principal balance is simply the original sum of money borrowed to purchase the house, which must be paid off over time. Payments towards the principle balance reduce the amount you owe on your mortgage, and increase your equity. Interest is the lender’s charge or reward for taking the risk of lending you money. Your interest rate has a direct impact on the size of your mortgage payments – with higher interest rates meaning bigger bills. Some payments may also include taxes and insurance depending on your unique circumstances and lender.
Whether or not you can afford a mortgage is entirely down to your unique circumstances – meaning it’s impossible to give a ‘one size fits all’ answer! If you’re unsure as to how much you’ll be able to afford, our mortgage experts recommend using one of our simple online mortgage calculators above to gain some insight as to your borrowing potential, alongside potential stamp duty costs, repayments, and your LTV.
If you’re looking for advice beyond this, our experts highly recommend arranging a fee-free, no-obligation mortgage advice appointment or consultation with us, during which one of our experienced mortgage brokers will work through your finances, and make accordant recommendations for your next steps.
Within the context of a mortgage, the ‘principle’ is the initial size of the loan, whilst the principle balance refers to the exact amount of the principle left to repay. For example, if you took out a £180,000 mortgage on a house, your principle would be £180,000. If with time, you paid off £50,000 of the principle, your principle balance would be £130,000.
The principle is not the only element of your monthly mortgage repayments, however. Your payments will first go towards paying off your accrued interest, with the remainder contributing to the principle.
An interest-only mortgage involves the repayment of only interest charges over the full term of the loan – meaning monthly payments will be lower, but that you’ll still owe the entire amount borrow (or ‘principle’) by the end of the mortgage’s specified timeframe. For this reason, if you’re looking to select an interest-only mortgage, it’s important to ensure you’ll be able to repay the principle when due.
If you’re considering an interest-only mortgage, or currently have an interest-only mortgage and would like to switch to a repayment plan or remortgage, a skilled broker could be key to ensuring you end up with the best possible product for your circumstances.
