Eligibility

Who may be eligible?

A pension mortgage may be relevant to company directors, business owners, self-employed professionals and other pension investors who have built a meaningful pension fund and want to assess investment property within a diversified retirement strategy.

  • Your pension arrangement must support direct property and borrowing.
  • The provider or trustee must accept the proposed transaction and lender.
  • The pension must retain enough liquidity for repayments, costs and retirement needs.
  • The property must be an arm’s-length investment and cannot be used personally.
  • The term must fit your retirement timeframe and the lender’s rules.

What an initial assessment considers

Your pension

Arrangement type, current value, transfer options, charges, benefits and intended retirement date.

The property

The borrowing

Documents to gather

  • A recent pension statement showing the arrangement type and value.
