Scope of payment
Principal and interest here; escrow and MI are modeled separately so cash to close is not understated.
Estimate principal and interest and know what this calculator does not include
Illustrative payments exclude taxes, insurance, HOA, and investor overlays. Sky keeps assumptions visible so you can export worksheets for your advisor before you lock or apply.
Professional calculator hygiene
Three labels Sky applies so numbers do not mislead offers
National sites bury PI vs. PITI in footnotes. Sky separates payment scope, lock timing, and documentation truth—the same triage wealth clients expect before signing.
Rate is illustrative
Market grids move daily; your lock confirmation and LE control actual pricing, points, and credits.
ARM honesty
Teaser inputs are not worst case caps—model fixed years, index, margin, and ceiling with your banker.

Estimated principal & interest: — / month
Illustrative only. Not a commitment to lend. APR and payment depend on credit approval, points, and program.
How to use the result
Compare the payment to gross monthly income only as a rough guardrail, then refine with actual taxes, insurance quotes, and HOA for your property.
If you plan to itemize deductions, consult a tax advisor on how mortgage interest treatment may affect your net housing cost.
- PI vs. PITI Confirm which inputs your scenario includes before comparing to a Loan Estimate.
- ARM phases Model fixed years, index and margin assumptions, and worst case caps separately from the teaser rate.
- Extra payments Note whether your goal is shorter term or lower total interest; some investors recast instead of re-amortizing.
