1. What is Rent-to-Own Amortization?

Rent-to-own amortization calculates the fixed monthly payments (EMI) required to pay off a purchase over time, including interest. It helps both buyers and sellers understand the payment structure of rent-to-own agreements.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

\[ EMI = \frac{P \times r}{1 - (1 + r)^{-n}} \]

Where:

\( P \) — Purchase price (principal amount)
\( r \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12)
\( n \) — Loan term in months

Explanation: The formula calculates the fixed payment needed each month to pay off the principal plus interest over the specified term.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Understanding your EMI helps budget for rent-to-own purchases, compare different financing options, and negotiate better terms with sellers.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the total purchase price, annual interest rate, and loan term in months. Ensure all values are positive numbers for accurate results.

A: Rent-to-own combines rental payments with an option to purchase, often with less stringent credit requirements.

Q3: Can I pay off early?
A: Most agreements allow early payoff, but check for prepayment penalties or fees.

Q4: What happens if I miss payments?
