Estimated interest rate (%)

This is the yearly cost of borrowing, shown as a percent of what you owe. It's what the lender charges you on top of paying back the amount you borrowed.

A higher rate means a higher monthly payment, which changes how much income you need to cover it.

Not sure? A rough estimate is fine. The rate a lender actually offers depends on the lender and on your application.
