2-1 Buydown: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers loan amount (currency). Stub page: the tool, its formula and a worked example are not published yet.
2-1 Buydown Calculator is a planned calculator in the real estate section of Super Calculator, covering mortgage core.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: loan amount (currency), note rate (%), term (years), buydown structure (2-1 or 3-2-1 or 1-0) and who funds the buydown.
Outputs: payment by year (currency), total subsidy cost (currency), payment step-up at each reset (currency) and escrow account balance schedule (currency).
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: A temporary buydown funds an escrow subsidy equal to the sum of the monthly differences between the note-rate payment and the reduced-rate payment across the buydown years. A 2-1 buydown reduces the rate by 2 percentage points in year one and 1 in year two; a 3-2-1 reduces by 3, 2 and 1. The note rate and the amortization schedule never change.
