Explanation: The formula accounts for compound interest over the life of the loan, calculating a fixed payment that pays off both interest and principal over the term.
Details: NAB (National Australia Bank) offers home loans with competitive rates starting from 6.59% p.a. (as of current date) with terms up to 30 years. This calculator provides estimates for standard principal and interest loans.
Tips: Enter the loan amount in AUD, annual interest rate (NAB's current rate is pre-filled), and loan term in years (up to 30). The calculator will show your estimated monthly repayment and total loan cost.
Q1: Does this include NAB's fees and charges?
A: No, this calculates principal and interest repayments only. Additional fees like application fees or annual package fees are not included.
Q2: How accurate is this calculator?
A: It provides accurate estimates for fixed-rate principal and interest loans. For variable rates or interest-only periods, consult NAB directly.
Q3: Can I calculate extra repayments?
A: This shows standard repayments only. Extra repayments would reduce the loan term and total interest.
Q4: What's the minimum deposit for a NAB home loan?
A: Typically 5-20% of the property value, but requirements vary based on loan type and borrower circumstances.
Q5: How often are repayments made?
A: This calculator shows monthly repayments, but NAB also offers fortnightly or weekly options which can reduce total interest.
