Overview

Specialist advice for borrowing later in life

From retirement interest-only (RIO) mortgages to lifetime mortgages and equity release, there are more options than ever for the over-55s. They’re also some of the biggest decisions you’ll make — so we take them slowly and clearly, and we’re happy to include your family.

  • Retirement interest-only and lifetime mortgages
  • Equity release to supplement retirement income
  • Advice on the impact on inheritance and benefits
  • Time to involve loved ones in the decision

Equity release will reduce the value of your estate and may affect your entitlement to means-tested benefits. A lifetime mortgage is a loan secured against your home. Ask for a personalised illustration showing the features and risks.

Good to know

Common questions

What is equity release?
It lets homeowners aged 55+ access the value tied up in their home as tax-free cash, while continuing to live there. The most common type is a lifetime mortgage. It reduces the value of your estate.
Will I still own my home?
With a lifetime mortgage, yes — you remain the owner. The loan and any rolled-up interest are usually repaid when you pass away or move into long-term care.
Is equity release right for me?
Not always. We’ll explore alternatives first, explain the long-term cost, and only recommend it if it genuinely fits your plans. Advice is required for all equity release.
