About hrc.io

Home Refinance Calculator. A small site for a large household decision.

hrc.io exists because too many “refinance calculators” are waiting rooms for a phone call. You type a balance, a rate, a ZIP code, and someone buys that as a lead. The math is secondary.

This site inverts that. The calculator is the product. It is free, it does not ask you to register, and it does not sell personal data. Comparison math — payment, cash break-even, lifetime interest, stay-horizon net — runs in the browser. If a figure would help a stranger sell you a loan, it does not need to leave the page.

What we are not

Rates on the homepage are published survey context, not a quote. Your price depends on credit, occupancy, property, points, and the week you lock.

How the calculator is built

Payments use standard fixed-rate amortization. Optional PMI is a simple estimate when loan-to-value is above 80%. Extra principal is applied monthly. Stay-horizon savings assumes that if you left on that date, you would pay off the remaining balance. Those are planning estimates. They will not match a servicing statement to the penny, and they ignore taxes, insurance, and HOA dues unless you put them in.
