Sarah purchased a condo for $200,000 with a $45,000 down payment and a $155,000 bank loan. The mortgage is to be amortized in just 15 years with an interest rate of 3% per year, compounded monthly. 10 years later, the value of her condo has risen to $260,000 and she would like to sell her property. How much does she still owe on her mortgage? What is her equity in the condo at this point?
Please show your work and formula. Step by step.
Thank you
Given the purchased value of Condo = $200,000
Down Payment = $45,000
Amount of the loan is 1,55,000.
The formula for calculating the monthly equalised installments is.
[P x R x (1+R)^N]/[(1+R)^N-1], where P stands for the loan amount or principal, R is the interest rate per month
Given the interest rate is 3% compounded monthly now the monthly interest rate is calculated as follows
Let X be the monthly interest rate, Hence
(1+X)^12 = 1.03
X = 0.002466 nothing but 0.246627%
Hence the monthly installment is
155000 * 0.002466 *(1.002466)15*12/((1.002466)15*12-1)
= 155000 * 0.002466 * 1.557967/0.557967
= 1067.387
Market value of Condo - Mortage payment remaining = $2,60,000 -
59457.83 = 200542.2 .Hence she still owes 59,457.83 to the bank and
the equity value will be
Balance at the end of year -10 as seen from the schedule is
59457.83
Note - I have presented the amortization schedule for year-1 and at year -10 ,that is at 120th month,similarly this format can be used to draw the schedule for 180 months. I am unable to paste it here due to words constraint.
