The stricter statutes for standard mortgage lending introduced over a year ago seems to have had an effect on older borrowers. With the need to evaluate cost-effectiveness, some lenders may now be less excited regarding lending on a mortgage term that will run into the borrower’s later years. Due to this, some people are switching to equity release to help pay off the loan, should they be unable to remortgage.
Although the new standard mortgage lending rules may cut down loan arrangements that extend into the borrower’s retirement years, a substantial number of mortgage deals were already been in place, and these can become a problem. For instance, continuing to pay off the loan every month when retired may pose difficulties for borrowers on a reduced income. Again, equity release may serve to meet any shortfall. If you face problems with your standard mortgage loan, you’re not alone! If you want help, please contact me to see if an equity release plan could deliver the right solution for you. I am more than happy to help you.
