5 Signs You Might Need a Later Life Financial Check-Up

Could Later Life Lending Help You or Your Loved Ones?

As life moves forward, so do our financial needs and responsibilities. For many people approaching or already in retirement, certain challenges begin to arise that can feel overwhelming without the right support. At Coreco Mortgage Advisers, we understand that later life planning is not just about numbers; it is about real lives, real families and real futures.

Here are some of the situations many of our clients face – and where tailored financial advice can make all the difference.

Your Home No Longer Works for You

Perhaps you are finding it difficult to move around your home comfortably. Stairs might be a challenge, bathrooms may not be easily accessible or your current living space simply no longer suits your needs. You may be thinking about adapting your home to make it more accessible or even considering moving to a new property altogether. These changes can be costly, and understanding your financial options can help you make the right decision for your future comfort and independence.

Managing Your Mortgage and Bills Is Becoming a Strain

If your monthly bills and mortgage payments have become increasingly difficult to manage, you are not alone. Many people are facing rising living costs and may have also built up debts over time that now feel unmanageable. Feeling stuck financially can be deeply stressful, but there are often solutions available that can ease the pressure and help you take back control of your finances.

An Interest Only Mortgage Is Coming to an End

If your interest only mortgage is due to end within the next five years and you are unsure how you will repay the outstanding balance, now is the time to start planning. Many people in this situation worry about losing their home or making drastic lifestyle changes. However, there are options that can provide a solution while giving you peace of mind and allowing you to stay in the home you love.

You Want to Help Your Children or Grandchildren onto the Property Ladder

Helping your loved ones purchase their first home is a dream shared by many parents and grandparents. With property prices continuing to rise, more young buyers are turning to family support for help with deposits or purchasing power. If you are in a position where you would like to help but are unsure how to do so without affecting your own financial security, there are ways to make that support possible in a sensible and sustainable way.

Your Income Is Limited and You Want to Improve Your Lifestyle

A limited income or small pension can make later life feel restrictive and uncertain. You may wish you had just a little more financial breathing space to enjoy life’s pleasures, whether that is taking a holiday, seeing family more often or simply affording a few extras each month. There are solutions that can help you unlock some of the value in your home to supplement your income and improve your overall quality of life.

Speak to Someone Who Understands

Every situation is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to later life lending. At Coreco, our experienced advisers are here to listen without judgement and guide you through your options. Whether you are thinking about equity release, a retirement interest-only mortgage or another solution, we will work with you to find the path that is right for you and your family.
