How can I pay back my mortgage?
There are two ways of repaying your mortgage:
- Repayment mortgage
A repayment mortgage is also known as a Capital & Interest mortgage - your monthly repayments pay off the interest and some of the capital borrowed each month. This is the only method that ensures your mortgage is totally paid off by the end of the term - so long as you keep up your payments.
- Interest Only mortgages
This is where you only repay the interest on your mortgage each month, so you'll need some sort of investment plan to pay off the capital, e.g. a pension, an endowment policy, an ISA or other long term investment plan. When your investment matures, you cash in the plan and use it to pay off your mortgage loan. You are responsible for the repayment of the capital when the mortgage reaches the end of the term.
