Equity release is a way of getting cash from the value of your home without having to move out of it.
The value or equity you have in your home is its open market value less any mortgage or other debt held against it.
Although the value of houses has risen over the years, selling up or moving somewhere cheaper to raise extra funds may not be for everyone and this is where Equity Release schemes can help.
Key points about Equity Release:
- You need to be over 55 and own your own home.
- You can get a cash lump sum, with or without a drawdown facility to use as you wish.
- Continue to live in your own home.
- Continue to be responsible for maintaining your home. Popular reasons for Equity Release:
