How much does a Lifetime Mortgage cost?

Fees for a Lifetime Mortgage Application can range from £1,500 to £3,000. This covers legal and valuation fees, lender’s arrangement fees, advice fees and completion fees. 

What are the criteria for a Limited Company Mortgage?

A lender would require information on the income of the company, rather than an individual, making the process a little more complicated.

What is a Second Charge Mortgage?

A second charge mortgage works just like a normal mortgage. It is secured against your property and you will make monthly repayments, until the full loan and interest are paid back.

What is the maximum age for a Lifetime Mortgage?

Unlike standard mortgages, there is no maximum age for Lifetime Mortgages.

Why would you get a second mortgage?

The beauty of this type of mortgage is that you can raise funds for any legal purpose without disturbing your current mortgage.

WHAT ARE LATER LIFE MORTGAGES?

Acknowledging that the population is living for longer, the mortgage market has reacted by introducing products designed for clients to borrow beyond the age of retirement.

HOW MUCH CAN I BORROW ON A SECOND CHARGE MORTGAGE?

Depending on your credit rating, and the amount of equity in your property, you can get a loan from £1,000 up to £2,000,000, subject to affordability.

HOW DO I BECOME AN EX-PAT?

Tax rules vary by country. Usually, if the main place that you live and work in is a foreign country, then you will become an ex-pat in the eyes of your home country. 

HOW LONG DOES A SECOND CHARGE MORTGAGE TAKE TO PROCESS?

The average turnaround time from your initial enquiry to completing your mortgage is three to four weeks.  However, this can be achieved significantly quicker in certain circumstances.
