3 Ways to Win.
Less cash out. Less debt. Refinance without going deeper.
Rate is the number that’s easiest to advertise — and the hardest to compare accurately.
When you focus only on rate, everything else gets buried. The fees. The total cash required. The true cost of buying that rate down. The months — sometimes years — before a lower rate actually saves you money.
Most borrowers make one of the largest financial decisions of their lives with an incomplete picture.
At Pilot Mortgage, we think that’s the wrong way to do business.
We focus on two numbers that actually matter:
Everything else is math. And we show you all of it.
What most borrowers never see | What Pilot Mortgage shows you |
|---|---|
The full cost of buying down a rate | Every dollar — included in Total Invested |
How long before a lower rate saves you money | Break-even calculated to the month |
What lender fees are actually costing you | $0 Origination. $0 Underwriting. $0 Processing. |
All available rate options | The complete table — highest rate to lowest rate
|
Whether refinancing actually makes sense | The math, laid out before you decide
|
Most mortgage tools show you a payment. The TrueCost Calculator shows you the deal.
It accounts for every dollar required to execute your transaction — lender fees, third-party costs, prepaids, insurance, and any points paid to reduce your rate — into one honest number: Total Invested.
Then it shows you three highlighted options and a complete table of every available rate so you can evaluate each choice on its actual merits — not on how it was presented to you.
The option with the lowest Total Invested. Not the lowest rate — the lowest total cost to get into your home. Because nothing extra was spent to get here, there is no break-even period. This is where every comparison starts.
A slightly lower interest rate, with a little more Total Invested. The calculator shows you exactly how many months of payment savings it takes to recover that additional cost. When that timeline fits your plans — it may be the right choice.
The lowest available rate — with full visibility on what it costs to get there and precisely how long before it becomes the mathematically smarter option.
Every available option. Highest rate to lowest rate. Lowest cost to highest cost. No option hidden. No pressure applied. The math is there — you draw the conclusion.
This is the tool the mortgage industry hasn't built — because most lenders don't want you comparing everything.
We built it because we do.
$0 origination. $0 underwriting. $0 processing. A loan structured around the lowest Total Invested. Your cash goes toward your home — not the cost of the transaction.
The best mortgage isn’t the one with the best-looking rate. It’s the one that leaves you with the least debt from the moment you close. We show you that number clearly — and structure the loan around it.
When the market improves — typically 6 to 12 months — we help you refinance at a lower rate without increasing your balance. Less debt. More equity. The win continues.
Before rate. Before options. Before anything else — Pilot Mortgage charges:
EXCELLENT Based on 16 reviews Posted on Charlie MacRossieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just closed on our new home in Scottsdale with the help of Gordon Goosen @ Pilot Mortgage. This is the 7th home closing in my lifetime and I can honestly say that this was the simplest and most stress-free experience so far! Gordon's level of knowledge, professionalism and communication was truly amazing. One of the most helpful tools that he provides his clients with is his proprietary, real-time mortgage rate comparison calculator (aka "The Pilot Mortgage Planner") which is ingenious! I HIGHLY recommend Pilot Mortgage and Gordon and when rates come down (hopefully soon), I will definitely be utilizing his services again to re-fi. THANK YOU GORDON!!!Posted on Jordon ParkerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jake and Gordon handled the loan process for us quickly and seamlessly.

🔵 Blue — Lowest Interest Rate
This option reflects the lowest interest rate among the available pricing choices.
Lower interest rates typically require:
Higher upfront charges (such as discount points)
A longer period of time to recover those costs through monthly payment savings
This option may be appropriate for borrowers who expect to keep the loan long enough to recover the higher upfront cost.
A lower interest rate does not necessarily mean a lower overall cost.
Rate:
The interest rate applied to the loan balance. A lower rate may require higher upfront costs.
APR:
Annual Percentage Rate reflects the total cost of the loan, including certain fees, expressed as a yearly rate.
Total Invested :
Estimated total cash impact, including lender fees and closing costs. This allows side-by-side cost comparison.
Debt Payment:
Estimated total monthly housing payment, including principal, interest, mortgage insurance (if applicable).
Breakeven:
The estimated time it takes for monthly savings to recover higher upfront costs compared to another option.
Color Highlights:
Colors identify cost relationships. They do not indicate approval, recommendation, or obligation.
