Repayment Amount

Hi

I cuurrently have a mortgage running at around 3.84% interest with monthly repayments of £1000. Can anyone tell me what my repayments would be if the interest rate went up to 5% ?

I am looking for a ball park figure, doesn't have to be exact. The outstanding mortgage is £190 000.

Cheers

    What is the term left on the mortgage - guessing it is a repayment and not interest only, as this would impact on the monthly repayments

    It would be between £1500 and £1600 per month (my calc say £1555.44)

  • ok guys. i have max bid of £1600 from darryl and max bid of £1200 from herbiesjp. that is a £400 difference.

    ummmm.....you have screwed me up more than when i asked the question.

    darryl how did you come to your calculation as i am more inclined to belive herbiesjp because his tag line says he is an independent broker.

    BUT i don't want to go into a situation when i think it is £400 less than it actually is.

    see what i mean !!!

    I used a calculator spreadsheet from the website http://www.mortgagesexposed.com/
    The Current Account Mortgage sheet to be exact (without entering any income/expenditure values)

    But, I just realise that I put in the wrong figures in one of the interest columns.

    So, I'd like to revise my calculation please... £1159.77 is now the calculated payment.

    I make it £1,134.11 if you have a repayment mortgage, and £791.67 if you have an interest-only one.
