keep your freedom in retirement

Retirement is about leaving work, not retiring from life, but managing day-to-day bills and expenses can often be a juggling game when you’re retired and on a limited income. Then there are those little expenses which crop up that you didn’t budget for that can really cause sleepless nights. Did you know that you may be able to release some equity in your own home and continue to live there? A retirement loan lets you borrow against the value of your property and free up some money – money to enjoy the things in life that really matter to you. Like spending time with family and friends or helping the grandchildren through university.

how does it work?

You can make the most of your retirement with less stress, more choice and a whole lot of fun with a retirement home loan.You take out a home loan with us against the value of your property as security. The loan incurs monthly interest, but this can be accrued so that no payments are required until you permanently move from your home.

maximum loan ratio

To protect you and your family there’s a maximum percentage of the value of the house you can borrow, from 5% at age 60 to 30% at age 80, to a maximum of 50%. So there will always be some equity behind you in those later years, and something to hand down

interest rates and payments

Our retirement loan has a floating interest rate and we can pay the loan to you as a single lump sum, pay it in annual instalments, or you might prefer to choose a combination of the two to suit your needs. When you or your family do come to sell the house, Atlantic Credit Savings will be repaid the amount owed on the loan. The balance is available to you or your estate.
