$600,000 mortgage payments by rate and term
| Rate | 30-year P&I | 20-year P&I | 15-year P&I | Total interest (30-yr) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5.5% | $3,406.73 | $4,127.32 | $4,902.50 | $626,424 |
| 6.0% | $3,597.30 | $4,298.59 | $5,063.14 | $695,029 |
| 6.5% | $3,792.41 | $4,473.44 | $5,226.64 | $765,267 |
| 7.0% | $3,991.81 | $4,651.79 | $5,392.97 | $837,053 |
| 7.5% | $4,195.29 | $4,833.56 | $5,562.07 | $910,303 |
Two lessons hide in that table. First, the rate matters enormously: the spread between 5.5% and 7.5% on $600,000 is $788.55 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.
What a $600,000 loan really costs per month
Principal and interest at 6.5%/30yr are $3,792.41. Add property taxes and insurance for a typical property at this price (roughly $675.00 a month combined, varying hugely by state — check yours in the state cluster) and the realistic bill lands near $4,467.41. Budget from that number, not the headline P&I.
