Equity Release

Homeowners are now able to enjoy the fruits of their labour and release cash from their home.

What is Equity Release?

Equity release is the process of unlocking part of the value of your home and turning it into cash. Whether you want to pay off debt, fund home improvements, support your family or go on that holiday you’ve always dreamed about, the money is there to use as you’d like.

How does Equity Release work?

If you’re 55 or over you could be able to release equity using a lifetime mortgage, which is a loan taken out against your home. You continue to own your home and you can stay living in it for as long as you like. The loan is then repaid from the sale of your property when you die or enter long term care.

That’s why you should speak to an equity release adviser before you make a decision. They will take the time to understand your financial situation, tell you whether it’s right for you and recommend equity release products that are a good fit for your needs.
