Equity release interest rates
Equity release interest rates range from 2.30% to 4%. Rates can either be fixed or variable with a capped limit. The cost of lifetime mortgages has reduced as interest rates are now lower than before. However, as the interest charged is compounded, lifetime mortgages remain significantly higher cost than standard mortgages.
The good news is that rates have continued to reduce throughout 2020 and 2021. So instead of paying as much as 7% for an equity release mortgage, you could now benefit from interest rates as low as 2.30%.
If you prefer to keep your interest rates on equity release low, some lifetime mortgages let you repay a percentage of the interest each year, so the loan won't be as high when it's repaid.
Also, by choosing a drawdown lifetime mortgage that lets you take an initial amount and further cash sums as and when you want, you’re only charged interest on the equity released, not the money held in reserve. The interest rate charged for each payment will depend on the rate at that time.
