Lifetime Mortgage Drawdown+:

Drawdown+ features

We know that control and choice on income levels in retirement is important for your clients - particularly as the cost of living continues to rise.

Our Lifetime Mortgage Drawdown+ allows your client to borrow a portion of their property value in the form of an initial loan, with the option to release further withdrawals from the pre-agreed reserve.

The product key features are:
  • No interest repayments throughout the life of the loan – the loan and rolled-up interest is repaid when your client dies or moves into long-term care.
  • Minimum age 55 – maximum age 84.
  • The minimum we will lend to start with is £10,000.
  • Further withdrawals are on request but not more than once per calendar month, with a £1,500 minimum.
  • Additional borrowing may be available (this is not guaranteed). Any additional borrowing will only be considered once the facility is exhausted and will be in the form of a one-off advance, not a facility extension.
  • Total maximum lending of up to £1,000,000.
  • For joint mortgages, ERC free repayment within 3 years of first death or move into long term care.
  • Interest rate linked to LTV.
  • A ‘No Negative Equity’ guarantee.
  • Fixed early repayment charges ending after 10 years.
  • Unlimited number of repayments with a minimum of £50 totalling up to 10% of total advances each year, free of any early repayment charge.
  • Support your clients and their families with LV= Doctor Services and Care Navigator, our added value benefits.

Important information

Here are some important things to know about our Lifetime Mortgage Drawdown+:
  • Access to the cash facility is not guaranteed - there are certain circumstances where it will be reduced or removed. For full details, see our Lifetime Mortgage Drawdown+ Terms and Conditions
  • Additional borrowing will only be considered when the existing reserve has been exhausted and a new property valuation has been undertaken.
  • Additional borrowing will be subject to a minimum of £2,000.
  • All further withdrawals are on request - limited to a £1,500 minimum. Only one withdrawal will be permitted each month.
  • Each time your client makes a withdrawal, it will be based on the new business interest rate applicable at that time.
  • Your client can repay some or their entire mortgage at any time, but an early repayment charge may apply within the first 10 years.
  • It's important that your client speaks with their family before taking out an Equity Release product, particularly any beneficiaries in their Will.
  • The interest rate is fixed for the life of the loan. The loan plus interest can add up very quickly.
  • LV= Doctor Services is a non-contractual benefit which can be changed or removed at any time.
  • This is a lifetime mortgage. To understand the features and risks, ask for a personalised illustration.
