It’s fair to say that the term ‘Equity Release’ tends to be associated with some horror stories from the past.
However, this market has evolved and Lifetime Mortgages are now considered a more mainstream and certainly heavily regulated product.
There are many more features and options available such as
- The ability to service interest (and therefore avoid rolled up interest)
- A ‘No Negative Equity Guarantee’ (so you will never owe more than your property value)
- A ‘Protected Equity’ feature – meaning you can secure an inheritance for your beneficiaries
However, before you even consider this type of finance, you need to consider –
- Whether raising any finance is the right approach for you
- If so, what is the best way to do it
This is where we come in.
