What is a Retirement Interest Only (RIO) Mortgage
A Retirement Interest Only Mortgage (RIO mortgage) is a later-life lending option that allows you to pay interest only each month – with no end date and no need to repay the capital until you sell the property, move into care or pass away. It’s ideal if you’re aged 55+ and want to keep monthly payments low while retaining homeownership.
Many homeowners approaching retirement worry about whether they can keep their interest-only mortgage into retirement, but a Retirement Interest Only mortgage provides a flexible solution.
Key benefits of a Retirement Interest Only Mortgage
✔️ No fixed end date
✔️ Lower monthly repayments
✔️ Capital repaid when the property is sold
✔️ Designed for homeowners aged 55+
✔️ Stay in your home long-term
