If you are 55+ and you are a homeowner, with a property valued at least £70,000, whether you have a mortgage or not, you could be eligible to take out an equity release plan.
Equity release plans allow you the option of releasing a portion of the value of your home as a tax-free lump sum, or a series of smaller sums that can be taken out during a specific length of time.
Your later life equity release advisors in London will take an in-depth look at your current situation, your past experiences and what you are looking to achieve in the future.

If this is the right path for you to go down, it also allows your later life mortgage advisor to find the most appropriate product that benefits you currently and in the future, from the whole of the market.
Both types of equity release plans, lifetime mortgages and home reversion plans, are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.
Whether you are looking to raise money to help out children or grandchildren, repay a current mortgage you have or other debts in your name, carry out home improvements or boost your retirement income to cope with increased costs of living, our fast & friendly mortgage advisors in London can help you to achieve your goals.
A lifetime mortgage in London can give you the option to release tax-free money from the value of your home. You will retain complete ownership of your home and you can stay in your home for the remainder of your life.

A lifetime mortgage may impact the value of your estate and it could affect your entitlement to current and future means tested benefits. The loan plus accrued interest will repayable upon death or moving into long term care.
Equity release in London is a later life mortgage option that is available to eligible homeowners in London, aged 55+, who are homeowners of a property that is valued at least £70,000. They do not need to have a mortgage.
When dealing with equity release in London, we most often find it occurring in the form of a lifetime mortgage. With a lifetime mortgage in London, you have the option of releasing money in a loan that is secured against the value of your home.
You remain the owner of your home, just as it would be the case on a conventional mortgage. Your later life mortgage lender will eventually need to be repaid, typically from the sale of your home, after you have either died or have moved into long-term care.
It is entirely possible that it could be. It is the role of a qualified later life mortgage advisor in London to talk with you and start to build up a picture of your plans, as well as what it is you hope to get out of your home later in life.
Your later life mortgage advisor will review all of the appropriate alternatives that may end up being better suited for you, before they look at equity release as a viable option for you.
It’s really all down to what the highest value solution is for you and your long-term needs. We actively encourage you to involve your family in our talks, though this is your choice.
Do not worry, if equity release in London is not the most suitable option out there for you, your later life mortgage advisor in London will be completely transparent in their service, let you know and help you to potentially find an alternative solution, even if this means referring to an external source who can offer the help you need.
When you take out equity release in London, you will retain 100% home ownership. This means that when you die or move on to long-term care, the remaining equity balance will be repaid from the sale of the property and everything that remains will either go to you or your estate.
Taking out a lifetime mortgage can come with many benefits like having the ability to choose what happens to your monthly mortgage repayments. Even though you pretty much owe a balance, it is common for people to let the interest roll up as a way to not make those monthly payments.
Keep in mind that your home is sold after you die or move into long-term care so you can pay off the remaining mortgage balance. Therefore, in the case where you don’t make those monthly payments, you may find that there is nothing left after for inheritance, if this was an option you were thinking of.
As well as talking with a later life mortgage advisor to find out if equity release in London is the best option for you to choose, we do recommend that you look into any further arrangement you may need to put in place for the future.
We do find that many customers find it’s best to speak with their family about equity release in London, making sure your will is up to date and that you also sort any lasting powers of attorney.
The reason as to why it’s key to sort these things out is usually your family will be beneficiaries (after your death) or attorneys (if you have an impaired mental capacity) who will be in charge of selling your home as a way to repay the lifetime mortgage in London that you took out.
The general consensus surrounding this is that sorting out these arrangements now will likely make it simple and normally cheaper in the future.

When you take out a lifetime mortgage, you can release the equity in your property as a tax-free lump sum as a way to pay off the rest of your existing mortgage. The majority of people normally let the interest rate build up over time.
Having a lifetime mortgage can impact your affordability because you already have a substantial outgoing (your current mortgage). Therefore, a lender may have a watchful eye on how much they are lending to you.
Having secured debts means that you have debts that are valued against an asset (like you mortgage valued against your house). Examples of unsecured debts include personal loans, credit cards, etc. These types of debts aren’t secured against any particular asset.
Contact our team if you are interested in going for this option, we will be more than happy to help.
If you are looking at giving your property a massive revamp like a conversion or extension, you may be able to release equity to fund these developments.
The process of remortgaging to release equity includes you taking out a lump sum of cash and invest it back into your property. Along with this, you will be placed onto a new mortgage deal, normally a repayment.
Some of the more home improvement option include a new kitchen, garden extension, home office, loft conversion or a new garage – it’s completely up to you!
As well as being able to release equity to fund home improvements, there is also the option to release equity to fund a holiday, your own/a family member’s wedding, etc. This is your money, so you can spend it on anything you like.
