Equity Release
As part of the advice we give regarding mortgages, we also advise on equity release schemes. We are not qualified or regulated to give financial advice so cannot advise on the financial aspects of the various products available but we can advise you on the legal implications for you, your property and your family.
Equity release is a growing and progressive market, which for you, the potential client, ensures a wider and much more competitive range of products to suit your particular needs. The old schemes, which had such a bad reputation, are a thing of the past and this whole area of financial advice is now very highly regulated. We will only work with financial advisers who are authorised and experienced in this area.
Equity release products are generally aimed at people over the age of 55 who own their own home. Like a lot of people, you may find that the bulk of your worth is tied up in your property and, it may be that you would want to use some of this value to do some of the things that you have always wanted to do but not had the opportunity to do.
As part of our property advice and our tax and estate planning advice, we are happy to discuss the implications and mechanics of equity release schemes with you and either work with a financial adviser you trust or introduce you to one we recommend.
