Calculate Your Louisiana Mortgage Payment
What Goes Into Your Mortgage Payment?
Principal & Interest: The amount you borrower from the lender plus the cost of borrowing that money.
Taxes: The annual amount of taxes owed to your parish based on their mileage rate and your properties value
Insurance: Property insurance, mortgage insurance, or flood insurance if it’s required.
How much does insurance typically cost?
The cost of insurance is determined by the location of the home, the size of the home, the age of the home, and the credit profile of the borrower. Lower credit, homes closer to the Gulf of Mexico, older homes and larger homes will all result in an increased insurance premium.
The typical cost of annual property insurance is between 0.5%-1% of the purchase price of the home you are buying.
