| Tricky things, ERCs … |
… there’s great uncertainty surrounding early repayment charges. |
 |
Every lender has a different way of charging early repayments. Some are a fixed % of amount – some are based on the long term interest rates |
 |
So, it’s vital your client understands that should they want to change their product or sell at some stage in the future, they could incur huge costs – up to 25% of the original loan in some cases |
 |
One thing’s for certain - there‘s a wide range of circumstances where these charges could bite – and, where they do bite, they can be substantial |
|
It pays to be fully aware of your client’s short to longer term requirements. |
