The longer your term is, the lower your mortgage payments will be, as you are spreading the cost over a longer period of time. So for First Time Buyers a longer term is often consider. On the other hand a shorter term will make you payments larger but it will end up saving you money in the long run as you will be paying less interest in total.
You will need to consider how you will be paying for your mortgage if this goes past your retirement age. The lender will also question this if your term does go past this as they will need to ensure that you will still be able to afford your payments at that time.
The longer your mortgage term is the more interest you will pay in total so it is always important to consider how much you will be paying over time.
