💡 What Is a Top-Up Mortgage?

A Top-Up Mortgage (also called a Mortgage Top-Up or Home Loan Top-Up) allows Irish homeowners to borrow additional money on top of their existing mortgage.
It’s often used for:

• Home renovation or extensions

• Debt consolidation

• Education expenses

• Large personal purchases

Instead of taking a separate personal loan with higher interest rates, a mortgage top-up usually offers lower rates and a longer repayment term.

⚙️ How the Calculator Works

This calculator uses the standard mortgage repayment formula used by Irish banks and lenders.

It takes into account:

• The total loan amount (existing + top-up)

• The interest rate (converted to monthly)

• The loan term (in months)

The formula calculates your monthly repayment (EMI) and total interest payable over the full loan term.
This gives you a realistic estimate of how much your new mortgage repayments will be after taking a top-up.
