RIO mortgages are designed for people aged 55 and over, allowing them to pay just the interest each month while the loan balance remains unchanged. The capital is repaid when the borrower passes away, moves into long-term care, or sells the property. Some RIOs have fixed terms, requiring repayment at a certain age or after a set period.
Unlike traditional mortgages, RIOs have more flexible affordability requirements. Borrowers only need to demonstrate they can manage the monthly interest payments.
These mortgages are ideal for those aged 55 or older, particularly retirees with a stable income from pensions or other guaranteed sources. RIOs offer lower monthly payments compared to standard repayment mortgages, making them an attractive option for those with a fixed retirement income.
Yes, switching from a traditional repayment or interest-only mortgage to a RIO is possible. However, it’s important to seek professional advice to understand any fees or new affordability checks that may apply. A financial expert can help you determine if this switch makes sense for your situation and if it will save you money in the long term.
