Increasingly, lenders are happy to give an ordinary mortgage to older borrowers, something that used to be less common.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Options for older borrowers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Specialist mortgage options exist too. Retirement Interest Only (RIO) mortgages are the newest addition to later-life borrowing options, with over 55s able to apply for a loan between 50% and 70% of the value of their home. With RIO mortgages, borrowers only pay the interest, a feature that makes the mortgage more affordable in retirement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mixing pension and mortgage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Retirement planning can be a complicated business, working out exactly how much money you need to live on when you are no longer working. Adding mortgage payments into the mix adds a further layer of complexity. But the main thing to remember is that there are lots of options for borrowing later in life.
