Frequently asked questions


What Is Equity Release & How Does It Work?
Equity release lets homeowners aged 55 or over access money tied up in their home – without having to move or make monthly repayments.
The most common type is a lifetime mortgage, where the loan and interest are repaid from the property’s value when it’s sold (usually after you pass away or move into long-term care).
Key Benefits:
Access tax-free cash, typically as a lump sum
No contractual payments - but you can make payments if you wish
Maintain ownership of your home
Spend the money how you choose – home improvements, helping family, or boosting retirement income
Are you eligible?
To be eligible for Equity Release you need to meet the following criteria
A lifetime mortgage is a loan secured against your home. To understand the features and risks, ask for a personalised illustration. Equity release will reduce the value of your estate and may affect your entitlement to means tested benefits.
Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up contractual repayments on your mortgage.

Frequently asked questions
What is equity release?
Equity release is a way for homeowners aged 55 or over to unlock some of the money tied up in their home without having to sell or move out. The most common types are lifetime mortgages
Do I still own my home with equity release?
Yes, with a lifetime mortgage, you retain full ownership of your home.
How much money can I release?
The amount depends on:
Your age (minimum 55)
The value of your property
Your health and lifestyle (some providers offer enhanced plans)
Typically, older individuals can release a higher percentage of their home’s value.
Will I have to make monthly repayments?
Not usually. With most lifetime mortgages, interest rolls up and is repaid when the home is sold—usually when you pass away or move into long-term care. However, some plans allow voluntary payments to reduce the interest.
Will equity release affect my benefits or tax position?
Yes, receiving a lump sum or regular income through equity release may affect your means-tested benefits (like Pension Credit or Council Tax Support). We can check this for you.
What happens to my home when I die or go into care?
When you die or move into permanent care, your home is typically sold, and the loan (plus interest) is repaid from the proceeds. Any remaining value goes to your estate or beneficiaries.
