1. What is the Bank Windhoek Home Loan Bond Calculator?

The Bank Windhoek Home Loan Bond Calculator helps you estimate your monthly mortgage payments using the standard amortization formula. This tool is designed to assist potential homebuyers in Namibia with financial planning for their property purchases.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard mortgage payment formula:

\[ M = P \times \frac{r \times (1 + r)^n}{(1 + r)^n - 1} \]

Where:

\( M \) — Monthly payment (NAD)
\( P \) — Principal loan amount (NAD)
\( r \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12)
\( n \) — Total number of payments (loan term in years × 12)

Explanation: This formula calculates the fixed monthly payment required to fully amortize a loan over its term, accounting for both principal and interest.

3. Understanding Home Loan Calculations

Details: The calculation considers the time value of money, ensuring that each payment covers the interest due while gradually reducing the principal balance over the loan term.
