Equity release is a popular option for homeowners looking to access the value tied up in their property without selling it. Whether you’re funding retirement, home improvements, or other financial goals, equity release can provide the flexibility you need. Taylor & Co’s expert guidance ensures you make the right choice for your future.
What Is Equity Release?
Equity release allows homeowners aged 55 and over to access their property’s value as a lump sum, regular payments, or both. The two main types of equity release are lifetime mortgages and home reversion plans.
Who Can Benefit?
Equity release is ideal for individuals who:
Own their home outright or have a small mortgage remaining.
Want to supplement their retirement income.
Prefer staying in their home rather than downsizing.
Advantages of Equity Release
Financial Freedom: Use the funds for any purpose, such as travel, renovations, or paying off debts.
No Monthly Repayments: Most plans don’t require repayments until you sell the home or pass away.
Stay in Your Home: Retain ownership and continue living in your property.
Things to Consider
Impact on Inheritance: Reduces the value of the estate you leave behind.
Interest Rates: Lifetime mortgages accrue compound interest.
Eligibility Requirements: Age and property value criteria apply.
