Introduction to Lifetime Mortgages
Now you can really make the most of your retirement with cash to spend exactly as you wish.
A Lifetime mortgage can give you the chance to unlock the money tied up in your home. Lifetime mortgages can be designed for there to be absolutely no monthly repayments and you can continue to own and live in your property for as long as you wish.
It could be the time to enjoy that holiday you promised yourselves or to travel to see family, friends and relations abroad. Or that the car needs replacing and a few improvements to the house are now required. It could therefore be that time in your life when you now should consider a Lifetime Mortgage.
How a lifetime mortgage works
If you (and your partner) are aged 55 or over, and you own your own home you could be eligible for a lifetime mortgage and borrow a cash lump sum. The amount you can borrow will depend upon your age and the value of your property.
Age limits and minimum property values will be assessed by the lender. It can be designed to suit your needs and to provide you with the financial security that you have aimed to have at this stage in life.
A lifetime mortgage is a commitment for the rest of your life and should not be used to get cash just for the short term.
If you choose to repay the loan early you may have to pay an early repayment charge depending on the lending conditions but all this will be explained to you beforehand when you contact us.
You will transact this with your Solicitors full knowledge and therefore you can have the peace of mind that the transaction is carried out in line with your present and future wishes you have planned for your partner and family.
If you are entitled to welfare or tax benefits these may be affected but again do simply ask for more information as this may help you reach the decision you wish to be able to make. Just call us without any obligation ~
