Bruto maandlast hypotheek (Gross monthly mortgage payment)

What is de bruto maandlast bij een hypotheek (Gross monthly mortgage payment)?

Gross means 'without deduction'. The gross monthly payment for a mortgage is the amount that is paid monthly without mortgage interest deduction without tax settlement. This amount therefore only consists of premium, mortgage interest and possibly the repayment.

The gross monthly mortgage payment is also the amount that is debited from your account each month. The tax settlement, such as the mortgage interest deduction, goes through the tax authorities.

For a good insight into what your mortgage actually costs, with tax deductions, it is better to look at the net monthly payment.

Various tax measures affect your monthly mortgage payments:

Addition:
The tax authorities see your home as an asset. You must therefore add an amount to your gross annual income. This amount is determined using the WOZ value.

Deduction:
You may deduct the costs for taking out the mortgage once. In addition, you may deduct the monthly mortgage interest from the tax, the so-called mortgage interest deduction.

Addition – deduction = tax benefit:
The government is trying to stimulate home ownership with interesting tax measures. The gross monthly payment (before tax settlement) is therefore often higher than the net monthly payment.
