Another mortgage-tacking route might be downsizing. That could have the advantage of lowering expenses for utility bills and council tax. If viable it's a way to make the mortgage payments through age 85 even lower, making it easier to fund during the early years of retirement when you may have no pension income yet.0

I qualify for full pension next October when I'm 60. Then I don't get any more if I stay till I keel over.
Just a question of whether I can manage without my salary until state pension kicks in if I go early.
You could always retire at 60 with full pension and then boost your income with a bit of work; part-time, perhaps, or self-employed.Free the dunston one next time too.0
