A Retirement Interest Only Mortgage is where your monthly payments only pay off the interest on the mortgage. The capital is usually repaid when the last borrower moves into long-term care or dies, and your home is sold. If there is any money left over, this is usually passed on to the people you name in your will.
Sometimes it is possible to extend the mortgage term of a traditional capital repayment Mortgage past retirement age to meet the needs of later life. Depending on the lender’s criteria, it may also be possible to arrange a traditional Interest Only Mortgage where your monthly payments would only cover the interest of the mortgage.
Equity release is a lifetime mortgage. This type of mortgage is typically used to unlock the value built up in your home and release it as a tax-free lump sum. It’s important to note that Equity Release will reduce the value of your estate and may affect your entitlement to means-tested benefits.
Equity Release services are referred to a third party. Millennium Mortgages are not responsible for the service received.
A Lifetime Mortgage will reduce the value of your estate and may affect your entitlement to means-tested benefits and tax status. The impact of not servicing monthly interest payments on a Lifetime Mortgage is that the outstanding debt can grow rapidly, thus reducing the value of your estate. For example, if the interest rate was 7% a year, a £50,000 loan would double to £100,000 after 10 years assuming no repayments are made. This is an example for illustrative purposes only and personalised advice and recommendations should be sought from a qualified professional. You are strongly advised to register a lasting power of attorney. This will allow your affairs to be managed by somebody else if your mental abilities significantly decline.
