Formula

PITI adds the costs many lenders collect each month on top of the loan payment: one twelfth of the annual property tax and one twelfth of the annual homeowners insurance.

With less than 20% down (loan-to-value above 80%), the calculator also adds PMI, here an annual percentage of the loan divided by 12. At 80% loan-to-value or lower, PMI is set to $0. HOA dues, if any, are added on top of PITI.

PITI = M + T ÷ 12 + H ÷ 12 + PMI

PITI = 2,275.44 + 4,800 ÷ 12 + 1,500 ÷ 12 + 360,000 × 0.5% ÷ 12 = 2,950.44
