One in five (19%) over 50s are relying on income from property to fund their retirement, according to new research from OneFamily.
OneFamily has enhanced its Interest Roll Up Lifetime Mortgage meaning customers can roll the interest up and pay nothing, or they can now pay it off as and when they want.
OneFamily data shows that the number of single women taking a lifetime mortgage has increased to one in every three customers (35%) from one in four (23%) just two years ago.
Nearly 70% of OneFamily Lifetime ISA customers are saving for the long-term and planning on using it to fund their retirement.
OneFamily has identified a growing group of over 55s that are using lifetime mortgages to fund property moves to more expensive homes. Buying a new property is now the fourth most popular reason for using a lifetime mortgage as homeowners who are retired, or approaching retirement, move to be closer to family and friends, or better amenities.
OneFamily is urging savers to maximise the opportunity offered by a Lifetime ISA and gain access to the Government 25% bonus. The Lifetime ISA is the only savings account that benefits from this generous monthly bonus and is available to savers from 18 – 39 years old saving for a first home or retirement.
