Overview
Homeowners can unlock equity tied up in their property for various financial needs. This type of loan can be helpful for purposes such as home renovations, debt consolidation, or investments in businesses.
Equity release lets you access some of your home’s value as tax-free cash, usually through a lifetime mortgage. You can take the money as a one-time lump sum or smaller payments over time.

Homeowners choose equity release for many reasons, such as retirement planning, paying off a mortgage, funding home improvements, or providing a financial gift to family or friends.

The amount of equity you can access usually depends on:
> Your home’s value
> The age of those named on the mortgage
Key Benefits
Equity release lets you access some of your home’s value as tax-free cash, usually through taking out a lifetime mortgage. A lifetime mortgage is taken out against your property, and the loan (plus interest) is repaid when the property is sold - usually after the last person named on the mortgage moves into long term care or passes away. With a lifetime mortgage, you can borrow against your home’s current value while you continue living there - effectively “releasing” some of the equity you’ve built. This option is still available if you have a mortgage remaining.
