What is Equity Release?
Equity release is a loan secured against the value of your property. This can be provided as a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If you’re aged 55 and over and own your own property worth £70,000 or more, you could be eligible.
How much money you can borrow depends on the value of your property. It’s important to get financial advice to ensure that equity release will truly benefit your lifestyle and long-term plans. To find out more about equity release and whether it might be right for you, take a look at the frequently asked questions opposite.
Lifetime mortgages and home reversion plans: Which is right for you?

A lifetime mortgage is a long-term commitment which could accumulate interest and is secured against your home. Equity release is not right for everyone and may reduce the value of your estate.
Please note that Agentis is unable to provide advice on home reversion plans.
FAQs
Am I eligible?
Equity release mortgages are designed for homeowners aged 55 and over. You will need to own a certain value of your home outright for equity release to be a suitable option.
How much equity can I release from my home?
The maximum amount of equity you will be able to release is up to 60% of the property value, dependent on age.
Can I move house with equity release?
Yes, you can move to another property with an equity release mortgage – however if you’re hoping to attach it to your new property, your mortgage provider will need to determine that the new property is suitable before you purchase.
What interest will I have to pay?
You do not usually have to pay interest on money that you’ve actually borrowed if you decide to commit to doing so. Often the loan rolls up and is paid off on the death of the last borrower. While equity release interest rates are typically higher than ordinary residential mortgages they are usually fixed. This means you should know exactly how much you’re expected to pay if you have chosen to clear interest monthly, and be able to budget accordingly. You can choose to pay some or all of the monthly interest.
How does equity release affect benefits?
If you’re concerned about whether equity release may impact your eligibility for welfare benefits, your mortgage advisor will be able to tell you whether the amount of equity you’re receiving would reduce or remove your entitlement to benefits.
