The question everyone asks first

What’s my payment?

Drag the sliders and watch the whole payment — not just principal and interest — come together. It’s a sample estimate, not a quote; Kayla turns it into real numbers in one text.

Wisconsin property taxes vary a lot by county and municipality; 1.6% is a rough statewide starting point. Kayla can pull the actual tax bill for any address.

Under 20% down, most conventional loans carry private mortgage insurance (shown here at a sample 0.5%/yr). It cancels once you reach 20% equity.

Why the “real” payment is bigger than the ad

P.I.T.I. — the four letters that make up your payment

Most rate ads show only principal and interest. Your actual monthly payment usually includes property taxes and homeowners insurance (collected in escrow), plus mortgage insurance if you put less than 20% down. That’s why the number above is honest even when it’s bigger.

wait, so the payment on the listing site was way lower than this??
Yep — those usually skip taxes and insurance. Mine includes them so there are no surprises at closing. Better to know now than at the title company.
