  UK Repayment mortgage  
 
With a repayment mortgage each monthly payment that you make will help to pay off both the interest and the actual capital borrowed, guaranteeing that the residential or buy to let property will be yours at the end of the mortgage term so long as payments are kept up as agreed. This is perhaps the more common type of mortgage that is available, as it offers the borrower more security than an interest only mortgage.

Monthly payments with the repayment mortgage UK will consist of two parts; one which will repay the capital borrowed and another which will cover the interest that has accrued on the amount borrowed. In contrast to an interest only mortgage, with the UK repayment mortgage it is likely that your mortgage lender will insist that you have some sort of life insurance policy to protect them should you happen to die before your mortgage is fully repaid.
