Confidence is low but opportunity remains high

Now more than ever we need to ensure that Later Life borrowers have options, whether buying, downsizing or helping their children onto the property ladder.

According to UK Finance, new residential lending where the term extends into retirement (when the main borrower turns 65) now accounts for around 60% of the total residential lending.[1] With many coming to the end of their fixed deals, they may feel their options are limited and those facing refinancing dilemmas will need as much support from brokers as possible.

Later Life borrowers will be thinking carefully about their rates, especially when they are expected to remain high, so finding a new deal that meets their needs is essential to rebuild confidence within the market.
