Calculator · Debt consolidation refinance

Debt consolidation refinance calculator.

Rolling debt into a mortgage can lower monthly cash flow — but it may extend debt, increase total interest, and put unsecured balances against your home. Model carefully. Planning only. Not a loan offer or rate quote.

01 / How to use this calculator

Three things to stress-test.

01

Use real balances and real rates

Pull the actual balances and rates from each card, auto loan, or installment. Estimates here flatter the consolidation; honest numbers are what tell you whether it actually wins on total cost.

02

Look at total cost, not just monthly

A lower monthly payment can feel like a win even when total interest goes up over the longer mortgage term. Read both numbers — monthly change and lifetime cost — before deciding.

03

Plan what you do with the freed cash flow

If the lower monthly gets re-spent on new debt, the consolidation isn't really working. The math only pencils if the freed cash actually funds reserves, payoff, or the original goal.

Current mortgage

Debts to consolidate

Each row models a debt as fixed monthly payment until paid off (planning simplification — real cards and loans accrue interest differently). Add up to 8 debts.

This calculator does not model each debt's own interest rate. Use it for cash-flow comparisons only — not lifetime-cost comparisons of the existing debts.

New mortgage scenario

Compare a hypothetical refinance — optionally consolidating your debts — against your current trajectory. Presets seed three pricing scenarios; adjust any field to model your own.

Increases your loan balance. You are paying those costs over time, not avoiding them.
Turns previously unsecured debt into debt secured by your home. Lower payment does not remove risk.

P and I only — taxes, insurance, HOA, escrows, and mortgage insurance changes are not modeled, per this page. Unsecured debt is shown with simplified paydown math; real cards and loans accrue interest differently. Lower payment can still mean higher lifetime cost if the term extends — this is planning only, not approval. Rolling balances secures prior unsecured debt against your home in real life; this model only shows the payment and balance math. Over your horizon, the consolidated scenario shows higher total outflow plus ending balance than your current path with these assumptions — verify before acting.

Estimate only. Not a loan quote, approval, or commitment to lend. Interest rate inputs are not APRs. Final terms depend on verified borrower details, loan structure, property details, and market conditions.

02 / What this calculator cannot know

The numbers look loud. The tradeoffs are bigger.

01

Unsecured debt becomes secured

Credit cards and personal loans are unsecured — the worst case is collections, not foreclosure. Rolled into a mortgage, those balances become secured against your home. That's a real risk shift the math doesn't capture.

02

Term reset matters

Paying off a 5-year auto loan with 30-year mortgage debt can look cheaper monthly while costing more in total. Term reset is the quiet cost of consolidation — the calculator can't decide whether that tradeoff is right for you.

03

It is not a refinance offer

Output is a planning estimate. Not a quote, not a rate lock, not an approval, not a commitment to lend. Real cash-out refinance terms depend on equity, credit, income, property, and current pricing.
