Hi does anyone know if any lenders provide mortgages that will run past 65 for my husband if i'll be 55, he's got equity in an house with his ex but can't see him getting it for a few years yet, but would like to move now. Thanks.

    Mortgages are assessed on each individual's circumstances to ensure they fit the criteria etc...some mortgage providers do offer mortgages to over 65's however whether your husband would qualify is for a lender to decide.

    Asking a whole of market adviser would be the best idea, ask friends, family etc if they have someone who they could recommend
