I would say that it now depends on the company you are with and whether they would push for a secured loan if equity is available.

By the time paperwork is sorted out £4k may be enough.

It may be a possibility then but bear the changes in mind - there are 2 companies that are pushing this at the moment.

my husband is 60 in 2 days time and will be retiring in 6 years if they pushed for a loan does this mean it can only be for half the monthly ammount we are paying and have to finsish by the end of our mortgage tern which is 6 years or my husbands retirement age which also is 6 years thankyou

I think so - it just comes down what happens between now and next year around how companies are reacting.

I think some are watching others to see whether they can get away with it.

I'm pretty sure that the loan cannot extend beyond the length of time remaining on your mortgage.

It is true that any form or secured borrowing whether a remortgage or secured loan caanot go past the normal retirement age. It is also true that the payments to the secured borrowings can only be 50% of the IVA payment so even if you did qualify for a secured loan the amount that could be raised may not be substantial anyway.

I think your offer is a decent one but personally I would put the proposal forward now. The variation would be that the IVA closes in January when you receive the funds so you do not need to wait until you are actually able to draw down the cash. If agreed by creditors then this may even speed the whole process up.
