Equity Release

Why consider releasing equity?

After a life of working and possibly raising a family, you have probably looked forward to enjoying your retirement. However, cost of living, life's unexpected twists and turns, together with the need to help children, can soon knock your plans off course. This is where equity release can help.  

What is equity release?

Equity release is a term used to describe a variety of ways in which you can safely unlock some of the equity which is tied up in your home to provide you with either a lump sum or extra income without the need for you to move or even make monthly repayments unless you want to.

The money realised can be used for whatever you want.

To find out more about different schemes, visit equity release schemes.

Could you benefit from equity release?

With rapidly increasing energy costs, and only modest increases to pensions, like many other people, either you or your children may be feeling the squeeze and could do with some additional funds to either replenish savings, make essential home improvements or even treat you or your family.

If so, providing you are a homeowner with little or no mortgage and you (and any other joint owner) are over 55, you could be well on the way to improving your retirement by qualifying for some equity release, all the time knowing that the roof over your head is safe.

To get an immediate indication of how much you could release under a lifetime mortgage or interest only mortgage equity release scheme, enter your details in our online equity release calculator.
