“How much equity you can release depends on your age and how much your property is worth. Finding out if this is the best option for you is best done alongside a regulated and qualified adviser.
Having been a qualified mortgage adviser for over 20 years, I took the ERC1 qualification to advise in the Equity release market. In addition, by becoming a member Equity Release Council, I can guarantee that the quality of the Equity Release products and advice is governed by the industry code of conduct.”


Many people are reaching retirement age only to find they don’t have the financial freedom they expected. Many have a large portion of their wealth in property but are understandably reluctant to leave their long-term family home to release this money.
Whatever your dreams, that missing piece of your financial needs could be locked up in your home. Equity Release allows you to access the value of your home and turn it into money you can spend as you wish.
