Loan amount $500,000.00 | Interest only rate of 4.5% | Days in year 365 | January has 31 days = $500,000.00 x 4.5% / 365 days in a year x 31 days in January = $1,910.96

Note: interest only rate varies depending on how many days there are in any particular month.

  • New interest rate
  • All Upfront / entry / establishment fees or charges including valuations (if applicable) and mortgage transfer fees
