Lifetime Mortgage calculator
Our Lifetime Mortgage calculator helps financial advisers to:
- Show your clients how much they may be able to release from their home.
- Demonstrate examples for both taking the maximum available as an initial advance or taking a smaller initial amount where the remainder can be drawn on in the future.
- Illustrate the effect of our inheritance protection option on the total loan amount available.
- Explore the impact of house price inflation.
- Highlight how the interest on their loan increases over time.
- Create a summary of your client's choices and possible results.
The calculator results are examples only. A lifetime mortgage is a loan secured on your client’s home. It will reduce the value of your client’s estate and may affect their entitlement to means tested state benefits.
