    Study Notes

    Mortgage Overview

    • A mortgage is a process allowing you to pay for a property's cost over time, not immediately.
    • It's a loan secured by real estate or personal property.
    • An example is when a buyer saves part of the property cost but needs a loan to cover the remaining balance.

    Mortgage Loan

    • A mortgage loan uses the property as collateral for a loan from a financial institution.
    • Collateral is the property held as security against the loan.
    • The mortgage loan amount equals the purchase price minus the down payment.

    Down Payment

    • A down payment is a certain percentage of the property's purchase price.
    • It's also known as the buyer's equity.
    • It's the initial payment when buying something with an agreement to pay the rest later.
    • Down Payment = Purchase Price x Down Payment Percentage

    Amortization Method

    • A method of paying a loan (principal and interest) in equal amounts at regular intervals.
    • The term of a loan is the total number of payments.
    • An amortization table displays the installment payment schedule.
    • It shows how much of each payment goes to principal and interest over the loan term.

    • A mortgage on movable property.
    • Outstanding Balance is the remaining debt at a specific time.

    Example Calculations

    • For a Php 2,205,600 house, with a 20% down payment, the down payment is Php 441,120.
    • The mortgage loan is Php 1,764,480.

    Formula for Monthly Payment

    • A = i x P (1 + i)n / (1 + i)n -1

      • A = Monthly payment
      • P = Loan amount (initial amount)
      • i = Monthly interest rate
      • n = Total number of payments (years * months)
    • Total Payment = Monthly Amortization x Total number of payments.

    • Total Interest = Total Payment - Mortgage Loan Amount.
