USDA Loan Mortgage Calculator

Estimate the full monthly payment on a USDA rural housing loan, including both guarantee fees.

How to use this calculator

Enter the home price, interest rate, loan term, and yearly property tax and insurance. The calculator assumes the common USDA setup: no down payment, the 1% upfront guarantee fee financed into the loan, and the 0.35% annual fee divided into monthly payments.

The formula

Loan amount = price × 1.01 (1% upfront fee financed). Principal and interest use the standard amortization formula M = L × r(1+r)^n ÷ ((1+r)^n − 1), with r = annual rate ÷ 12. Monthly payment = P&I + loan × 0.35% ÷ 12 + tax ÷ 12 + insurance ÷ 12.

Example: $300,000 at 6.5% for 30 years

Loan with financed fee: $303,000 → P&I ≈ $1,915.26. Annual fee: $88.38/mo. With $300/mo tax and $100/mo insurance, total ≈ $2,403.64 per month.
