Equity Release

We all work hard to pay off any mortgage we have on our property and congratulate ourselves when we have, but once you have retired you may find you struggle to manage on your pension. You may be considering releasing some of the capital tied up in your property, but without wishing to sell your beloved family home. One of the many equity release schemes may be an ideal alternative for you.

We are members of the Equity Release Council (ERC). This means we sign up to the standards and principles set by the ERC Standards Board, formerly known as SHIP.

• Assess your potential inheritance tax liability and consider taking steps to reduce it.
