How do equity release mortgages and lifetime mortgages work in Cambridgeshire?
Equity release enables homeowners over the age of 55 to release money tied up in their property without selling it or moving out. It can be taken in one tax-free lump sum or can be more flexible with regular payments or a drawdown facility so you can access the cash as and when you need to. Our advisers will guide you through the options, so you can make an informed decision about the right product that fits your needs and circumstances.
A lifetime mortgage is a type of equity release plan and the most popular option – the other type of equity release scheme is known as a home reversion scheme. With lifetime mortgages, you are able to continue owning and living in your home but you release some of its value in order to be able to spend it today.
The debt is repaid when the last named person on the equity release dies or moves into long-term residential care.
