Not sure what a ‘lifetime mortgage’ actually means? Quite simply, it’s a type equity release mortgage. If you are a homeowner aged at 55 or over then you may be able to use this form of mortgage top up your finances in later life. The best part is that you can use the tax-free cash any way you like, take that once in a lifetime holiday, home improvements or even clearing existing debt.
The funds you can access with a lifetime mortgage will be secured against your home. You don’t have to sell your home, you won’t have to move, and there’s no monthly payments – unless you choose this option. By speaking to one of Lifelink’s independent equity release advisers we can help you understand if equity release is the right option for you.
With a lifetime mortgage, homeowners aged 55 and over can unlock cash against the equity in their home, which must be their main residence. In most circumstances there will be a choice of how you want your cash. Either by taking a single lump sum where interest is charged on the full amount from day one, or by a drawdown option, where you usually receive a smaller initial lump sum and then you are able to access further amounts as and when required from your drawdown facility.
If you do not require all your cash immediately then a draw down facility may be the best option for you, as interest is only charged on any amounts drawn down meaning interest added will potentially be lower.
In most cases you will not be required to make any monthly payments on your lifetime mortgage, the amount owed will be added to the advance thereby increasing the amount you owe, any interest payments added will also be charged interest (this is known as compound interest) The amount you owe will increase over time and will be fully repaid when you or the last remaining borrower either passes away or permanently moves into long-term residential care. However, should you prefer to pay the monthly interest there is also a plan with that option.
