Enhance your lifestyle without having to sell your greatest asset – your home!ASF Lifetime Loan

An ASF Lifetime Loan offers peace of mind because it allows you to use the equity in your home to enhance your lifestyle while not adding to your worries about money.

An ASF Lifetime Loan is a mortgage that unlocks some of the accumulated wealth in your property and lets you remain in your own home and retain title over your property. It is a loan without regular repayments of either interest or capital during the course of the loan.

How does an ASF Lifetime Loan work?

It’s simple. If you are over 60 years (or if a couple, one of you is over 60 and the other over 55) and you own your home, an ASF Lifetime Loan allows you to borrow up to 50% of the confirmed valuation of your property to a maximum amount of $250,000.00. And you can use the loan to fund anything you want, for instance:

  • home renovations and maintenance
  • health care
  • debt reduction
  • a new car
  • pay out an existing mortgage
  • a holiday.


You can choose to make payments on the loan; otherwise, there is nothing to pay until you sell your home, or your estate is wound up.

An ASF Lifetime Loan also includes a ‘no negative equity’ guarantee and ‘equity protection’ options so that your total repayments never exceed the value of your property.
