15 vs. 30-year Mortgage Calculator

15 vs. 30-year Mortgage Calculator

Compare 15-year and 30-year mortgage terms.

What This Number Means

This comparison is only one part of the decision. Before you choose a term, consider:

  • How much more the 15-year payment costs each month

  • How much total interest the shorter term saves

  • Whether the higher payment fits comfortably in your budget

  • How quickly you'd build equity under each option

  • Which term better balances flexibility and long-term savings
