How the Pag-IBIG housing loan calculator works

The Pag-IBIG Fund (Home Development Mutual Fund) provides affordable housing loans to qualified members in the Philippines. This calculator estimates monthly amortization, total interest, and the minimum gross monthly income needed under Pag-IBIG's affordability rules. All math runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server.

Enter the property value, down payment, interest rate, and loan term. Results update as you type, including monthly amortization, loan principal, total interest, and required gross income. For standard reducing-balance loan math, see the EMI calculator. To model a full U.S. housing payment with taxes and insurance, use the mortgage calculator with taxes and insurance. To check how much down payment you need, try the down payment calculator.

Monthly amortization formula

Pag-IBIG housing loans use standard fixed-rate amortization. The monthly payment is calculated from the loan principal, annual interest rate, and number of months:

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

Where P is the loan principal (property value minus down payment), r is the monthly interest rate (annual rate divided by 12), and n is the total number of months.

The 35% income affordability rule

Pag-IBIG caps housing loan amortization at 35% of a borrower's gross monthly income. If your monthly amortization exceeds this threshold, you may need a longer term, a larger down payment, or a lower purchase price:

Required Gross Income=Monthly Amortization0.35\text{Required Gross Income} = \frac{\text{Monthly Amortization}}{0.35}

Rates and income rules in this tool reflect Pag-IBIG Fund guidelines for 2026. Actual approval depends on membership status, contribution history, property appraisal, and current Pag-IBIG rate tables.

Worked example: $2,000,000 property, 10% down, 6.25% rate, 20-year term

  1. Down payment (10%): $2,000,000 x 10% = $200,000
  2. Loan principal: $2,000,000 - $200,000 = $1,800,000
  3. Monthly amortization: $13,156.71 at 6.25% over 240 months
  4. Required gross income: $13,156.71 / 0.35 = $37,590.60 per month
