A lifetime mortgage is a form of equity release that allows homeowners to access a portion of their accumulated home equity. It’s a lifelong mortgage with no fixed term, meaning it stays in place until the homeowner passes away or moves into permanent care. Interest charges accrue over time, and repayment is deferred until the end of the mortgage, usually upon death or moving into long-term care. You also have the option to make monthly payments if you choose. When the home is sold, the loan is repaid from the sale proceeds. It’s advisable to discuss a lifetime mortgage with family members before proceeding.
