A LIFETIME MORTGAGE WILL REDUCE THE VALUE OF YOUR ESTATE AND MAY AFFECT YOUR ENTITLEMENT TO MEANS-TESTED BENEFITS AND TAX STATUS.

THE IMPACT OF NOT SERVICING MONTHLY INTEREST PAYMENTS ON A LIFETIME MORTGAGE IS THAT THE OUTSTANDING DEBT CAN GROW RAPIDLY, THUS REDUCING THE VALUE OF YOUR ESTATE. FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE INTEREST RATE WAS 7% A YEAR, A £50,000 LOAN WOULD DOUBLE TO £100,000 AFTER 10 YEARS ASSUMING NO REPAYMENTS ARE MADE. THIS IS AN EXAMPLE FOR ILLUSTRATIVE PURPOSES ONLY AND PERSONALISED ADVICE AND RECOMMENDATIONS SHOULD BE SOUGHT FROM A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL.

YOU ARE STRONGLY ADVISED TO REGISTER A LASTING POWER OF ATTORNEY. THIS WILL ALLOW YOUR AFFAIRS TO BE MANAGED BY SOMEBODY ELSE IF YOUR MENTAL ABILITIES SIGNIFICANTLY DECLINE.
