Equity linked mortgage

The lender takes ownership of a stake in the equity of the property. This means that they lend you less than the full amount that is required to buy the home. Interest is only charged on the amount that they lend you and not on the full value of the property. When you sell the property, the lender receives payment in proportion to the amount of equity that they own, and therefore benefits from any increase in the price of the property.

Repayment mortgage

Repayment mortgage

A mortgage where throughout the term, regular payments (usually monthly) are made to partly repay interest on the capital and to partly repay the capital itself (the amount of the loan).Initially the largest proportion of the repayments will be used to pay interest since the capital amount outstanding is at its highest value. Therefore over the initial years the capital will not reduce very much. However as the years proceed more and more of the monthly repayments will be applied to reducing the capital until towards the end of the term the large proportion will be paying off capital and a small proportion paying interest.In the event that interest rates rise then often the monthly repayments will rise accordingly. Alternatively, to keep the same monthly repayments the term will need to be extended. If interest rates fall then the reverse applies. It is usually a requirement of the lender (that is, a building society or bank) providing the mortgage that the borrower takes out life assurance so that repayment is made in the event of his/her death during the term.
