Equity release

Thinking about releasing equity from your home and whether it’s right for you? The two main types of equity release are lifetime mortgages and home reversion plans and our lawyers can advise you on both.

We’ll provide clear and impartial advice, explaining both the potential benefits and the risks involved. Our aim is to help you make an informed decision with knowledge of all your legal responsibilities and how equity release works.

“Equity release can be a way to enjoy retirement in the home you love more comfortably, perhaps by adapting your home or simply easing financial pressures. But, it’s a big step, and it’s our job to offer a supportive ear and provide the clear legal guidance you need. We’ll work together to ensure you have all the information to decide if it’s the right path for you and your family.”
