Borrowing Power Calculator

Start from a repayment you are comfortable with and see the indicative loan it could support. This is a rough estimate to help you plan, not a lending decision. A broker can give you a real assessment.

A lump sum you would pay at the end of the term instead of financing it. Leave at $0 if there is none.

This is an estimate, not an offer. What you can actually borrow depends on your income, expenses, credit history and the lender's assessment. Talk to a broker for a real assessment.

How to read this estimate

This calculator works backwards from a repayment. It takes the repayment you say you are comfortable with, the interest rate, the term and the frequency, and works out the loan that repayment would clear over that term. It is the reverse of a repayment calculator. It is useful for a quick sense of scale, but it is not a borrowing-capacity assessment: a lender looks at your income, expenses, other commitments, credit history and the purpose of the funding before deciding what you can borrow. Use this as a starting point, then talk to a broker who can compare real options across a lender panel.

Estimate only

This calculator gives an estimate for general information only. It is not financial advice, a quote, or an offer of finance. Actual rates, fees and repayments are set by the lender and subject to approval and your circumstances.
