How to Use the Pag-IBIG Housing Loan Calculator
A Pag-IBIG Housing Loan Calculator is a tool that helps you estimate your monthly amortization, total loan repayment, and total interest when availing of a housing loan from the Pag-IBIG Fund.
Buying a home is one of the biggest financial commitments most people will make. Understanding how much you will pay each month can make the difference between a comfortable lifestyle and financial stress. This calculator allows you to plan ahead by giving you a clear picture of your potential obligations before you even apply for a loan.
How It Works
The calculator uses the loan amortization formula to determine:
- Monthly Amortization – The fixed amount you’ll pay every month.
- Total Payment – The total of all payments over the loan term.
- Total Interest Paid – The amount paid on top of the loan principal due to interest charges.
It assumes a fixed interest rate for the entire term, which is commonly offered by Pag-IBIG under its Housing Loan Program.
Steps to Use the Calculator
- Enter the Loan Amount – The amount you plan to borrow from Pag-IBIG.
Example: ₱1,000,000. - Enter the Annual Interest Rate – Input the expected rate (commonly between 5.75% to 10% depending on the chosen loan program and repricing period).
Example: 6.5%. - Enter the Loan Term in Years – Choose your repayment period (up to 30 years is allowed under Pag-IBIG).
Example: 30 years. - Click "Calculate" – The calculator will instantly show your monthly amortization, total repayment, and total interest paid.
This allows you to compare different loan scenarios and find the most affordable option for your budget.
