There are a selection of schemes available that enable money to be borrowed against your home, to provide income or funds to improve your quality of life. Equity Release is the most popular way of raising money against your property – it can also be termed a lifetime mortgage.
Equity release is a choice increasingly made by those aged over 55 years old and with property worth at least £50,000.
More and more people are turning to Equity Release to top up their income; clear their debt; buy a new car; help their children or for important home improvements that will enhance the quality of their life.
