Later life mortgages
Retired or approaching retirement? Unlike the big banks we can offer generous mortgage terms beyond the age of 60.
What is a later life mortgage?
At Family Building Society we don’t turn down people because of their age. We treat our older borrowers the same as our younger ones.
Our standard range of Owner Occupier mortgage products are available to later life borrowers. We also offer a later life specialist mortgage, our Retirement Interest-Only mortgage.
We don’t believe in a ‘one size fits all’ approach to mortgage lending and actively look for ways to help when other mortgage lenders are unable to.
Case study
