Fuzzy, are you asking about changing a repayment mortgage to an interest only mortgage to pay more money into an IVA?

Ah yes Viki - I can see the point now. Thanks!

An interest only monthly mortgage payment will be lower than a repayment payment, given that you are not actually repaying any of the original loan. It an be a dangerous thing to enter into, as your property will never therefore be owned by you, and at some stage the lender will want their money back. However, as a temporary measure to fund higher IVA payments - in order to make an IVA viable - it possibly could be a sensible option for you, but a lot of lenders are now asking for a tool of repayment to be in place.

I suggest that you have a chat with your lender to see what your options are.
