What is Equity
Release?

Equity release is the collective name for products that provide home owners aged 55 to 95 with a way of releasing some of the wealth tied up in their property without having to sell it and move to another home.

For many people, their property is their biggest asset. Unlocking this value via equity release is an option being considered by an increasing number of over 55s as a way to help financially plan for retirement.

Equity can be released via a lump sum or in stages via drawdown to help provide an additional source of funds or income in later life, with a growing choice of product features and flexibilities:

  • Unlock cash from your home if you’re 55 or over.

  • Get a tax-free lump sum or drawdown as a regular income.

  • Live in your home throughout retirement.

EQUITY RELEASE PRODUCTS

We know your home is important to you, that's why lifetime mortgages are clear and straightforward

CONSIDERING YOUR OPTIONS

Equity Release isn’t for everyone, so it’s important to understand the benefits and what to consider.

Advantages of Equity Release

Get a tax-free cash lump sum

The tax-free cash can be taken as either a lump-sum or you can 'draw down' the money as income depending on the option you choose

You still own 100% of your home with a Lifetime Mortgage
If you pay off your current mortgage with the lump sum, you can choose to spend the leftover cash on whatever you want

Things to Consider

The money you release from your home could affect any means-tested benefits you’re entitled to now or in the future

The money you release is paid back after you die, from your estate. This means the size of your estate, and the amount you can pass on to your loved ones, could go down

The money you release from your home is a loan, and interest will be repaid when you die or if you move into long-term care

You have to take advice to release equity from your home. Initial advice is free, and there is no obligation. If you decide to go ahead the fee will be £995. 

If you're looking to find some extra money in retirement, Equity Release isn't the only option. There are lots of alternatives like downsizing your home or taking out a personal loan.
