The monthly payment on a $75,000 loan ranges from $1,025 to $7,535, depending on the APR and how long the loan lasts. For example, if you take out a $75,000 loan for one year with an APR of 36%, your monthly payment will be $7,535. But if you take out a $75,000 loan for seven years with an APR of 4%, your monthly payment will be $1,025.
Almost all personal loans offer payoff periods that fall between one and seven years, so those periods serve as the minimum and maximum in our calculations. In addition, these calculations assume that if the lender has an origination fee, it's built into the APR. Some lenders charge an origination fee up front, so your monthly payments might be smaller as a result.
Below are the monthly payments that you can expect on a $75,000 loan with different payoff periods. The table assumes you will be paying interest at an APR of 15%, which is roughly the average personal loan APR.
