Equity release in
Dorset — specialist advice, built on trust.

Yes — we advise homeowners across the whole of Dorset. Home visits are available throughout the county, including coastal areas like Weymouth and Swanage, and more rural parts such as the Purbeck peninsula and the Blackmore Vale. If travelling isn’t convenient, phone and video appointments are just as thorough and work equally well. Everything happens at your pace, with no obligation at any stage.

Because Dorset property values are among the highest outside London, many homeowners in the county qualify to release a meaningful sum. As a general rule of thumb, the older you are and the higher your property value, the more you may be able to access — typically ranging from around 20% to 50% of your home’s value depending on your age and circumstances. For a personalised figure based on your specific property, read our guide to how much equity you could release.

Yes. Our advisers cover the full county — from the coastal towns of Weymouth, Swanage, and Bridport to the inland market towns of Sherborne, Blandford Forum, and Shaftesbury. You can choose a home visit, a phone appointment, or a video call — whichever feels most comfortable. Loved ones are always welcome to join any appointment.

From your first consultation to funds arriving in your account, the process typically takes 6–8 weeks end to end. Dorset has a good network of experienced local solicitors and surveyors who are familiar with the county’s property types — including older rural homes, period cottages, and listed buildings — which helps keep the legal and valuation stages moving smoothly. Your adviser will manage the whole process and keep you informed at every step.
