Lifetime Mortgages and equity release Hunstanton
Equity release is broadly split into two categories: Lifetime Mortgages and Home Reversion Plans. Our equity release brokers in the Hunstanton area work with Lifetime Mortgage products, the vastly more popular option.
Lifetime Mortgages allow you to take out a loan on your property that you can receive as a lump sum, a regular income or a combination of the two. If you choose a Drawdown Lifetime Mortgage, you will only pay interest on the money that you have accessed. You can continue to own the property and will not need to make any monthly repayments unless you wish to do so. The value of the loan plus any accrued interest will be repaid only when you die or move into long-term care.
Another key difference between a Lifetime Mortgage and a conventional mortgage is how your loan sum is calculated; with a traditional mortgage, your income and financial commitments are significant factors when considering affordability. However, for Lifetime Mortgages, the age of the youngest applicant and the property value and potentially any health issues are the only considerations.
With Lifetime Mortgages, usually the rate of interest for equity release is fixed for life.
Therefore, if you decide to let the interest roll up over time, you can forecast the sum owed throughout the year throughout the term on a year-by-year basis.
If you take out a Lifetime Mortgage, you can benefit from any future increase value on your property. This is good news because you may be able to release more money in the future if you wish. There is also a guarantee that you will never pass on debt to your loved ones and some products allow you to ring-fence some of the property’s value as an inheritance for your beneficiaries.
According to the rules of the Equity Release Council, all Lifetime Mortgages can be transferred or ported to another property as long as it is acceptable to the lender at the time.
