Mortgage Calculators are helpful and are a useful resource for getting a ballpark estimate for a payment, but for a more accurate answer it is always best to get a good faith estimate known as a GFE from your lender. My rule is always pre-qualify with a good reputable lender before starting the purchase process so you know exactly what you can afford and are comfortable with!
Typically these mortgage calculators do not include taxes and insurance. These tools come in handy temporarily but when you want a better idea, contact me and we can speak with a mortgage professional about specifics.
Probably not so be sure to tell your lender that you wish to see the estimated monthly payment with escrows.
Normally the estimated payment is simply principle and interest. Insurance, taxes and PMI will be added to that figure.
No, this amount is only principal and interest. Taxes are determined by the county's accessed value of the property. And insurance is determined by the loan amount as well as your credit rating. Be sure to work with a buyer's agent to represent your best interests.
Carrie - I am assuming you are talking about the monthly esstimated payment that is showing under the asking price that shows when you look at the details of a home on this site. If that is the case then no that amount does not include taxes and insurance. If you look further down the screen you will see that it will break down an estimate for the taxes and insurance estimates as well.
