The straightforward way to release equity. For homeowners aged 55+.
Take everything you release in one go — often used for clearing a mortgage, home improvements or a major purchase.
A lump sum suits a one-off need; drawdown suits taking money in stages. A specialist broker can compare both for you.
Money released with a lifetime mortgage is tax-free when you receive it, because it is a loan rather than income. Interest earned if you save it can be taxed, and large gifts may have inheritance tax implications — a specialist broker can talk these through.
Understanding how you can unlock your home's value
Equity release is, in a nutshell, a way to unlock the value of your property and turn it into cash which lets you access - or 'release' - the equity (cash) tied up in your home, if you're 55+.
The most popular type of equity release is a lifetime mortgage, which is a loan secured against your home.
You can receive the money you release in a lump sum or in several smaller amounts following an initial lump sum.
