Hi, I hope someone can help me on this.
Part of my mortgage agreement has a provision to avail of 36 months paying interest only. I have used up 10 months of this provision when I first got my mortgage a few years back. I have been a fulltime employee since I took out my mortgage. I am now in the process of setting up my own business and cashflow will be tight for a few months. I want to avail of the interest only payments for a further few months. I was talking to someone who was telling me that by leaving my fulltime job I would be breaking the terms of my mortgage as mortgage agreements usually have a clause requiring that you will remain in fulltime employment.
So I have two questions,
1 Is it normally part of a mortgage agreement to agree to remain in fulltime employment?
2 What's the best way of saying this to my mortgage holder? (i.e. should I tell them I'm leaving a fulltime job to set up my own business or should I tell them something else?) I'm remaining on parttime in my job until my business gets up and running.
I'd appreciate any info or advice people may have on this.
