Are you over 55 and living in Teesside, looking for ways to fund a comfortable retirement?

Your home is probably your biggest financial asset.

Equity release allows you to access some of the value tied up in your home and turn it into tax-free cash to use however you want, such as:

· Home improvements

· One-off purchase e.g. new car, caravan or holiday

· Enable a more comfortable retirement

· Help friends or family members financially

How does equity release work?

The value of your home, minus any outstanding mortgage, is described as your ‘equity’. An equity release plan is a way of accessing extra cash without having to move, particularly beneficial for homeowners in Teesside.

To qualify for an equity release scheme, you must be a homeowner aged 55 or over, or if the property is jointly owned then both parties must be over 55. With some equity release plans, there are no repayments to make and with a Lifetime Mortgage, you continue to own your home.

Plans all come with a ‘no-negative equity guarantee’ which means you will never pass on debt to loved ones, and some plans include an option to guarantee an inheritance.

“People come first. We wouldn’t want to advise a client on a decision to make with their home using equity release until we knew how they wanted to live their life.”

Equity Release & Retirement

Make the right decision for you and your property. Equity release is a method of converting the equity of your home into cash. If you’re 55 or older, you can access – or’release’ – the equity (cash) in your property through a variety of schemes. You don’t have to be completely debt-free to do this.

Lifetime mortgages and home-reversion plans are the two primary types of equity release. The lifetime mortgage, which is aimed at homeowners aged 55 and up, is the most popular of them. It allows you to borrow against the value of your property while maintaining full ownership of your home for the rest of your life without making monthly payments.

After the homeowners pass away or enter long-term care, the equity release loan, plus interest, must be repaid. Repayment is usually accomplished by selling your home. However, if other options are open to the executors of your estate, they can utilise them to repay the loan.The interest on your lifetime mortgage will depend on how long it runs for and what type of plan you choose.The amount of equity you can release from your home is dependent upon various variables such as your age, your health and the value of your home. You can find out using our equity release calculator. The calc will take your age and your value and give a value that could potentially be released.
