Having seen any number of TV adverts, many people ask 'what is equity release'?
In the UK, it is a term given to financial products that allow older homeowners to take cash out of the value of their home.
In all cases they retain the right to continue living there for the rest of their lives.
They also do not have to make any payments to a plan during their lifetime.
Equity release plans are designed for those over the minimum age of 55.
The amount you can release depends broadly on two things: the age of the youngest applicant and the property value.

How can older homeowners release some of the money tied up in their homes to use and enjoy in retirement?.
Many of those reaching pension age face the prospect of receiving lower than expected income from pension plans.
We also have a state benefit system struggling to provide for those who need extra help to manage financially in retirement.
Others who retire may have something of an aspirational lifestyle, having been able to afford the nice things in life whilst they were working.
This includes such things as foreign holidays, a new car every few years and other luxury goods.

What are Equity Release 'lifetime mortgages' and how do they differ from 'normal' mortgages that are available to everyone?.
A lifetime mortgage does not have to be repaid within a certain term, it can literally run for your lifetime.
You can choose whether to meet the interest charged each month on the loan, but you do not have to pay anything back on a monthly basis if you do not wish to or cannot afford to.
Any interest you do not pay simply gets added on to the total loan each month, so the debt grows.

Professional Lifetime Mortgage advice will carefully consider the reasons for needing equity from the owner's home.
There may be other alternatives available.
For those needing more income, an assessment of the entitlement to State Benefits should be undertaken.

A significant number of pensioners may be entitled to more benefits than they are currently receiving.
