FINANCE: What is Your Equity in Your Home Doing For You?
“I’d love a holiday home somewhere warm: – this is one of many starts to a conversation where the solution could be a lifetime mortgage…
What is your equity in your home doing for you?
It’s always been the dream of many homeowners to make that last payment to live mortgage free in their home for life but is this actually the best option for you or your family?
For a surprisingly low interest rate with no monthly payments to make and no upfront costs you could release some of the money tied up in your home to:
• Repay an outstanding mortgage to reduce monthly costs
• Enhance your retirement income and therefore your lifestyle
• To help your children with a deposit for a house
• To go on that holiday of a lifetime
• To buy a holiday home in the UK or abroad
• Or a multitude of other reasons
Interest rates on lifetime mortgages are at an all-time low with many providers offering a fixed rate for life making it a great solution for people who would like to make more use of their hard earned equity.
Most lifetime mortgage providers are offering inheritance guarantees so you can be reassured that you are able to leave a proportion of your property value as an inheritance.
