Endowment Mortgage

Posted on: 29th May, 2004 02:14 am
Endowment Mortgage is a kind of interest only mortgage which is backed by an endowment policy.

Endowment Mortgage consists of following:
  • Monthly interest payments to an Endowment policy (life assurance policy).

  • Monthly interest payment to the mortgage lender.

  • Endowment premium payments to the lender.
Here the interest rate changes on the mortgage do not affect the premiums due to the endowment policy. This endowment policy enables the borrower to pay off his mortgage when the mortgage term matures. He can also save some money with him. If the total sum does not cover the mortgage principal at the end of mortgage term, the lender will want the person to increase the payments.

For Example, in 2004 Rocky has taken a 30 year mortgage for $500,000. Also in 2004 he buys a 30 years life insurance policy, after 30 years in 2034 he can give this money to the mortgage company. Suppose he dies in 2020, then his family can get one million from Life Insurance Company and can use this money to pay off the mortgage at once. That way they won't be burdened with the mortgage when the main earner dies.
An endowment mortgage is a mortgage held on a base of interest only if the capital is to be repaid by one or more provisions policies.The staffing are distinct and that the borrower may change or arrangement, if desired. In the past, the endowment policy was often viewed as additional security for the lender.
