Over 60s mortgages

If you're over 60, it might feel hard to find a mortgage. But there are special products and providers for people your age. And when you use Saga Mortgages, we’ll find the best options for you. 

This article looks at some of the best mortgage lenders for over 60s. The list is based on the expert opinion of our partners, Tembo.

Remember a mortgage is a loan secured against your home. It may be repossessed if you don't keep up mortgage payments.

1. Livemore

Livemore focuses on people aged 50 to 90. Their Retirement Interest Only (RIO) mortgage is for a loan to value (LTV) ratio up to 75%. They accept multiple types of income source. 

This can include pensions, rent, salaries and foreign income

2. Leeds Building Society

Leeds has a range of mortgages for people over 60. But they offer RIO mortgages for people as young as 50. Their top LTV limit is 55%, but they don’t have a minimum equity limit.

They can measure affordability using current and future income. 

3. Family Building Society

Family Building Society can help all ages onto the property ladder. And they specialise in mortgages for over 60s and retirees. As their Standard Mortgage is offered up to 95 years old, it could work if you don’t want a retirement mortgage.

4. Hodge

Hodge help homeowners in later life. Their RIO, 50+ and Holiday Let mortgages come with an Early Repayment Promise. You can repay the balance in full if you sell your home early. And you won’t incur an early repayment fee, even in your fixed rate period.

5. Newbury

Newbury offers a RIO 5-year discount mortgage with a variable rate. Variable rate products tend to have lower rates than fixed rate deals. If you don’t mind your costs changing monthly, this product could work for you.
