What this is

Maximum interest-only mortgage your monthly budget supports.

Used to size HELOCs or interest-only investor mortgages. Principal stays constant; monthly cost is principal × annual rate ÷ 12.

Lenders qualifying you on interest-only loans usually still stress-test with an amortizing-equivalent payment at higher rate.
