Part of your retirement strategy will be around paying off any debt such as your mortgage as soon as possible. Entering into retirement without having debt hanging over your head will mean you can enjoy a comfortable, stress free lifestyle.
If you still have a mortgage when you retire your retirement will be quite hard. Options you have are downsizing, or utilising your superannuation to pay off your house, or selling assets you have to pay it off. You would unfortunately rely more on the pension in this circumstance.
Superannuation is rarely sufficient to fund retirement on its own. Its recommended that one has investments or assets in their name as well as their super. If you have sufficient assets, you won’t need to rely on the pension and you’ll be able to enjoy all the things you have looked forward to in retirement.
