What is Mortgage Points vs.Rate Calculator Spreadsheet?
This spreadsheet (in Open Office format) calculates payoff period, remaining loan after 5, 7, and 10 years, total interest paid, etc. It includes a set of payoff functions in StarOffice Basic. It is usefull to calculate, among other things, whether you should pay mortgage points up front, or go with a higher mortgage rate. I was thinking of a way to compare different loans with. I finally came up with this spreadsheet where these items should be entered: The first set is probably constant througout the whole spreadsheet.
