How to use Home Loan Refinancing Calculator

See if refinancing your Malaysian home loan saves money — monthly saving, break-even, and net lifetime saving after switching costs. Results are educational estimates, not official approval or advice.

  1. 1

    Enter current and proposed loan terms

    Add outstanding balance, current rate and remaining term, then the new rate, tenure and all switching costs.

  2. 2

    Check savings, break-even and lifetime cost

    Compare current and new payments, monthly saving, break-even time and remaining total cost.

  3. 3

    Test rate, tenure and fees

    Change one proposed term at a time so a lower payment is not mistaken for a cheaper loan.

Before relying on the result

  • Verify lock-in penalties, legal and valuation fees, insurance effects and the lender's final offer.
  • Notice the rate date and assumptions stated on the page.
  • Confirm important decisions with the relevant bank, employer, or authority.

Assumptions

  • Reducing balance (amortising) formula used for both loans.
  • Break-even months = total switching cost / monthly saving.
  • A longer new tenure lowers the monthly payment but can raise total interest.
  • Rates, fees and lock-in penalties vary by bank; this is an estimate, not an approval or advice.

When is refinancing worth it?

Refinancing means replacing your current home loan with a new one, usually to get a lower interest rate. It involves costs such as legal fees, valuation, and sometimes a lock-in penalty. Refinancing pays off when the interest savings exceed the switching costs within a reasonable time (the break-even point).

Watch the new tenure: a longer tenure lowers the monthly payment but can raise total interest paid. This is an estimate only — not a bank approval or financial advice.
