What is Equity Release?

Equity Release enables you to unlock and access the equity (cash) tied up in your home, if you own your own home and are over the age of 55.
To support you through retirement you can take the money you release as a tax free lump sum (or a regular monthly income from the lender for a defined period of time) or in smaller amounts or as a combination of both.
Objectives for releasing equity
By releasing a portion of the equity in your home you’ll have money to spend on whatever you wish. It could be holidays, home improvements, buying a new car and/or helping your family with an early inheritance
