Unlike many equity release companies, we are not tied to a panel of lenders. We can look across the whole of the equity release market to find the right products for our clients. We aim to provide all the information you need to decide whether equity release is the right choice for you. We are members of the Equity Release Council (ERC) that safeguards and protects the interests of consumers. This includes only recommending products that have a ‘no-negative equity guarantee’. Meaning that you will never owe more than the value of your property.
We always give tailored advice according to your needs and situation. Equity release allows you to access some of the funds tied up in your property without having to move or sell your home. You will remain the legal owner of the property until you die or move into long-term residential care and the loan is repaid. The money is tax-free and can be used entirely as you wish, so whether you would like a new luxury kitchen or to go on a once-in-a-lifetime holiday, we can guide you through the process of releasing the funds you need.
Equity release is not always the right choice for everyone, to understand the features and risks please ask for a personalised illustration. We can also access other products such as retirement interest-only mortgages and residential mortgages too.

Lifetime mortgages and other equity release options in Suffolk
The most popular form of equity release is a lifetime mortgage, which is a loan secured against the value of your property and has some similarities with a standard mortgage. This includes the fact that you retain 100 per cent home ownership and you can sell your property and move to another, subject to certain criteria being met.
However, unlike a standard mortgage, there are no monthly repayments and there is no fixed term. The loan is repaid from the future sale of your property and this happens when you or the last remaining homeowner (in the case of a couple) moves into care or passes away. Any interest is added to the loan and paid off then. Alternatively, the interest can be paid regularly or you
can make ad-hoc interest repayments to reduce the interest at the end of the term. Use our equity release calculator to see how much cash you could raise.
A drawdown lifetime mortgage will allow you to release cash from your property over time, rather than receiving it all in one go. This means you could end up paying less interest because the interest is only charged from the date you release that amount of money.
The other main type of equity release is a home reversion plan, which offers tax-free cash for selling part of your home.
