What is Equity Release?

Equity release refers to a range of products letting you access the equity (cash) tied up in your home if you are over the age of 55.

You can access the the money in 3 ways:
1. As a ‘tax free’ lump sum
2. In several smaller amounts or as a regular fixed income
3. Combination of both.

There are 2 main Options

1

Lifetime

Mortgage

Reversion Mortgage Farnborough
With a Lifetime Mortgage you take out a mortgage secured on your property provided it is your main residence or a buy to let while retaining ownership. You can choose to ringfence some of the value of your property as an inheritance for your family. You can choose to make repayments or let the interest roll-up. The loan amount and any accrued interest is paid back when you die or when you move into long-term care.

Reversion

Equity Release Farnborough

With a Reversion Mortgage you sell part or all of your home to a home reversion provider in return for a lump sum. You have the right to continue living in the property until you pass, rent free, but you have to agree to maintain and insure it. You can ring-fence a percentage of your property for later use, possibly for inheritance. The percentage you retain will always remain the same regardless of the change in property values, unless you decide to take further cash releases. At the end of the plan your property is sold and the sale proceeds are shared according to the remaining proportions of ownership.

What can you use Equity Release for?

By way of a tax free lump sum, monthly income or drawdown arrangement...

Most people who take out equity release use a lifetime mortgage. Usually you don’t have to make any repayments while you’re alive, interest ‘rolls up’ (unpaid interest is added to the loan). This means the debt can increase quite quickly over a period of time.

However, some lifetime mortgages do now offer you the option to pay all or some of the interest, and some let you pay off the interest and capital. In the same way ordinary mortgages vary from lender to lender, so do lifetime mortgages.

How we can help you with equity release?

and why it’s appealing?

We understand that ‘Equity Release’ is quite a new area in mortgages and there are benefits and risks to taking out a ‘lifetime mortgage’ (technical term) for equity release.

However, we are dedicated to helping people understand ‘how it works’ and explaining the benefits and risks.

“Property Is often a household’s largest asset, and it is vital more people understand its possibilities not only to provide an income in later life or pay off debts, but also to provide a living inheritance’ for family members and to help fund care needs.

Helping young people get on the housing ladder and paying for social care are issues that affect many of us and we look forward to helping our clients with clear, straightforward and unambiguous advice as to how equity release can play a part in helping to meet these challenges”

However, finding out how much equity is in your house and how much can be released depends on your circumstances and is best done face to face to get an accurate figure
