What Is Equity Release?
Equity release allows homeowners aged 55 and over to access some of the money tied up in their property without having to sell or move out.

The most common type is a lifetime mortgage, which is a loan secured against your home that’s repaid when you move into long-term care or pass away. You continue to own your home, and the loan plus interest is settled later.

The Benefits of Equity Release in Hertford
Stay in your home: Continue living in the place you love.
Tax-free cash: The money you release is tax-free.
Flexible options: Choose a lump sum, smaller payments over time, or a mixture.
No negative equity guarantee: You’ll never owe more than the value of your home.

Things to Consider Before Releasing Equity
Equity release isn’t right for everyone. It’s important to understand the implications:

It will reduce the value of your estate
It may affect your entitlement to means-tested benefits
Interest can roll up over time, increasing the amount owed
That’s why it’s crucial to take independent, FCA-regulated advice before making a decision.
