Two lessons hide in that table. First, the rate matters enormously: the spread between 5.5% and 7.5% on $1,500,000 is $1,971.38 every month. Second, the term is the biggest interest lever you control — the 15-year column pays the loan off in half the time for a fraction of the interest. Compare the two structures in depth with the 15 vs 30 year calculator.
