Mortgage with a pension
Options

Looking at options for the future. Have several years left to run of a low fixed rate on my mortgage which will take me comfortably into zone of potential early retirement. After stopping paid employment I will be able to comfortably service the mortgage payments from DB pensions/DC drawdown/cash/investment buffer and intend doing so. Medium term my current plan is to downsize from large family home inside M25, liberate a sizeable equity sum and move to a cheaper part of the country.
Has anyone any experience of mortgage companies treating the switch from paid employment to early retirement as a material change of circumstance and attempt to use this to withdraw the low rate and/or impose an early redemption?
Thanks in advance!

Providing the mortgage is paid every month then the status quo will be maintained. .0

????? How would they know? in what way is it different to someone being between jobs and continuing with payments ?
And, to repeat, how would they know? The money that is transferred whether you are earning or funding from investments or savings and between jobs, in retirement or being kept as a gigolo, is still money0
