LoanLife
Overview
LoanLife is a mortgage calculator web application that helps users understand the true cost of their home loans. By providing clear breakdowns, interactive charts, and scenario comparisons, it empowers homeowners to make informed financial decisions and plan their mortgages with confidence.
The Challenge
Many mortgage calculators are either overly simplistic or too complex. LoanLife needed to:
- Deliver accurate, intuitive calculations

- Be fully responsive for mobile users

Users can compare scenarios, test extra repayments, and explore early payoff strategies, all within a clean, responsive interface.
