3. How much interest do you have to pay each month for a 500 million home loan
Currently, banks are offering installment home loan packages with interest calculated on a reducing balance basis.
Specifically, the formula, how banks calculate interest based on reducing balance is:
- Monthly Principal Repayment = Loan Amount / Number of Months Loaned
- First Month Interest = Loan Amount * Loan Interest Rate
- Subsequent Months' Interest = Remaining Principal Amount * Loan Interest Rate
Example, for a bank loan of 500 million to buy a house, choosing BIDV bank's home loan package, with a preferential interest rate of 8.8% per year for the first 2 years, post-preferential interest rate of 10.5% per year, and a loan term of 3 years, then:
Amount to be paid in the first two years
- Total principal + interest to be paid in the first month is: 17,555,556 dong
- Total principal + interest for the second month is: 17,453,704 dong
