Working out mortgage repayments across set mortgage period yourself?

Posts: 277 Forumite
Hi,
I know there are countless mortgage comparison sites like https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/mortgages/best-buys/, however I'm interested in understanding the formula I need to use to calculate what the repayments on a mortgage would be across a defined mortgage period (2,3,5 years) at a given fixed interest rate/starting tracker rate, whereby I can choose to include/exclude set-up fees?
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks in advance!

Search up Annuity Formula in your favourite search engine if you want to see the mathematical formula behind the calculation.wookie6 said:Hi,
