Basic mortgage & loan terms explained

If you are not familiar with mortgage terminology, this short glossary will help you use the calculator correctly.

  • Principal – the amount of money you borrow from the bank. This is usually the size of your mortgage.
  • Outstanding principal – the amount you still owe the bank at a given moment. It decreases as you make payments. When the outstanding principal is zero, your loan is fully repaid.
  • Interest – the amount you regularly pay the bank for lending you money. It depends on the interest rate.
  • Interest rate (often expressed as % p.a.) – the percentage the bank charges you per year for borrowing money. For example, if you owe 1,000 EUR and your interest rate is 1.2% p.a., you pay 12 EUR per year in interest.
  • Installment / payment – your monthly payment to the bank. It has two parts:
    • Principal part – reduces the amount you owe.
    • Interest part – the bank’s reward for lending you money.
  • Annuity payment – a fixed (constant) installment where the total payment stays the same, but the ratio between principal and interest gradually changes.
  • Status of interest and principal at a certain payment – shows how much you will still owe and how much interest you will have paid after a given number of installments.
  • Fixed-rate period (fixation) – the period during which the bank guarantees your interest rate will not change (e.g. 1, 3, 5 or 10 years).
  • Refinancing – moving your existing mortgage or loan to another bank, usually to obtain a lower interest rate or better conditions.
