THE BASICS

What is equity release?
A quick overview.

Equity release allows homeowners aged 55 and over to unlock a tax-free lump sum — or regular drawdowns — from the value tied up in their property, without having to sell or move out. The most common type is a lifetime mortgage, where interest rolls up over time and the loan is repaid when your home is eventually sold. For a full explanation of how it works, read our guide to what is equity release.

WHY ADVICE MATTERS

Why Buckinghamshire homeowners choose a local equity release specialist

Buckinghamshire is one of the most equity-rich counties in the South-East. Average detached property values in areas like Beaconsfield, Gerrards Cross, and Marlow sit well above £700,000 — meaning many homeowners in their 60s and 70s are sitting on substantial, largely untapped wealth built up over decades.

That level of equity brings real opportunity — but it also means the stakes are high. Getting the right advice matters.

We regularly work with Buckinghamshire homeowners in two common situations. First, many parents and grandparents in the county want to help adult children onto the property ladder in a market where first-time buyer affordability is severely stretched — particularly for those looking to stay within commuting distance of London. Releasing equity to gift a deposit is one of the most meaningful things a Bucks homeowner can do for their family right now.

Second, many clients in the county own older or period properties — farmhouses, cottages, and character homes across the Chilterns — and want to fund adaptations that allow them to age in place comfortably, without the upheaval of moving.

Whatever your reason for exploring equity release, our advisers take the time to understand your full picture before making any recommendation. Your loved ones are welcome at every appointment, and you’ll never feel rushed. To learn more about what a specialist adviser does, visit our equity release adviser page.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Buckinghamshire equity release — your questions answered

Buckinghamshire property values are among the highest outside London. In many parts of the county — particularly Beaconsfield, Gerrards Cross, and Marlow — the average detached home exceeds £700,000, meaning the equity available can be substantial. As a general guide, most homeowners aged 55–75 can release between 25% and 50% of their property’s value, depending on age and individual circumstances. For a full breakdown of how the figures are calculated, read our guide on how much equity you could release.

Absolutely. We cover the full county — from Aylesbury and High Wycombe in the north, through the Chiltern villages of Amersham, Chesham, and Chalfont St Giles, down to Marlow and Burnham in the south. There’s no need to travel to a branch or office; we come to you. Home visits, phone appointments, and video calls are all available — whatever works best for you and your family.

From your initial consultation through to funds arriving in your account, the process typically takes 6–8 weeks. Buckinghamshire has a good network of solicitors and independent surveyors experienced in equity release, which helps keep things moving. For older or non-standard property types — such as period cottages or thatched properties in the Chilterns — it’s worth allowing a little extra time for the valuation stage, and using a locally-familiar firm can help avoid unnecessary delays. Your adviser will guide you through every step.
