What is a Lifetime Mortgage?

A Lifetime Mortgage is a type of Equity Release. It allows you to borrow either a one-off lump sum or initial lump sum and a reserve from the equity in your home. If you’re over 55 and you have a reasonable amount of equity in your home, you could be eligible for a Lifetime Mortgage.

A Lifetime Mortgage could be an option if you’re facing a pension shortfall, need to meet an unexpected expense or want to fund your retirement, it allows you to tap into the wealth you’ve accumulated in your property without the upheaval of moving home.

As a Lifetime Mortgage is a type of loan, you will retain ownership of your home. Most Lifetime Mortgages allow the interest to be rolled up, which means the interest is added to the loan. But many of the newer schemes allow you to pay the interest if you want to.

Lifetime mortgages and home reversion plans are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.
