For many older homeowners who have enjoyed many years of property growth they often have a lot of equity in their homes, by using an equity release mortgage they would be able to free up funds without the need to sell and move home. If you own a property worth at least £70,000 and are aged 55 or over the option could be there for you.
Equity Release are also known as Lifetime mortgages and is a mortgage secured against the value of your home. Typically with a lifetime mortgage there are no monthly repayments to make as the loan plus any rolled up interest is repaid when the mortgage comes to an end, that’s either when you or the last remaining borrower dies, or permanently moves into long-term residential care.

Lump sum or drawdown
With Lifetime mortgages you can decide on how to access your funds, you can access your tax-free money all at once or if you prefer you can draw down funds as and when you require them, or a combination of both.
If you want to move you can take your mortgage with you.
If you decide to move you can take all or part of your mortgage with you to your new home, subject to criteria and the lender approving your new home. If you are downsizing and want to pay off part of the loan, that’s also an option and subject to criteria early repayment charges may not being applied.
Inheritance Protected
One option you can include is to protect a percentage of your home’s future value which can be passed on to loved ones, this is subject to criteria.
