A later-life mortgage is a mortgage designed for homeowners aged 55 or over and allows you to borrow money based on the value of your home while continuing to live there. We advise on later-life mortgages, including Equity Release and Retirement Interest Only mortgages.
Typical reasons for requiring a later-life mortgage:
We are a proud member of the Equity Release Council.
A type of residential mortgage
A Retirement Interest Only Mortgage, RIO, is a loan secured against your property. With this type of mortgage, you will have to pay the interest every month, but the loan is usually paid off when you die, sell the property or move into long-term care. The total loan amount will not increase; you will only need to prove you can afford the monthly interest repayments.
KEY POINTS:
Usually lending up to 60% loan to value
55 years old in excess and up to 85 years old
Income assessed: based on pension and investment income, or a combination of both.
A type of equity release
A lifetime mortgage is a loan secured against your property. It enables you to continue to own 100% of your home whilst also releasing either a lump sum of tax-free cash or a series of lump sums from the value of your property. The amount you can release depends on your age and the value of your property. You will not have to repay the loan until you die or move into long-term care.
KEY POINTS:
You need to be a homeowner aged 55 or over and UK resident
No monthly repayments
You can choose if you want to pay interest monthly or to roll it up
You retain 100% ownership of the property
