Is equity release the right choice for you?

An increasing number of homeowners are finding that equity release is their preferred way of funding their desired lifestyle through retirement. At this stage of life, it’s common that much of your household wealth is tied up in the value of your home, making it difficult to access unless you move to a smaller or cheaper property.

Equity release allows you to stay in your family property, while receiving part of its value in a lump sum or a series of payments. How you spend it is entirely up to you, but many people choose to invest in home improvements, splash out on an exciting family holiday or simply supplement their other retirement income so they have a little bit more money to spend in their daily life.

As with any major financial decision, it’s important to fully understand the implications of equity release before you proceed. It’s essential that you choose the right scheme to suit your family, lifestyle and financial situation in order to gain the biggest benefit.

Very professional and pleasant to deal with. John took great care to make sure we got the best deal and even nudged our solicitor along to ensure we didn't miss our deadline before the rate went up. Highly recommended.

From the very first meeting I knew that John would be on my team. He is thoroughly professional but with a light and approachable touch. I would recommend this man highly for his knowledge and expertise. He found us a lifetime mortgage deal when others had turned us away. I’ve already recommended him to my sister. Thank you, John, for all your hard work.

I can highly recommend John Whyte 100% .... He is patient, explains in full if you don't understand he will make it simpler to understand. He will NOT leave you wondering what he was talking about. He was never 'pushy' in anyway in fact he was the other way making sure WE were happy with the transaction. John was very quick with replies and was always at the end of the phone. Because we are not really 'techno bods' everything was done the old fashioned way through the post or even hand delivered.I only wish more people were like John. Thank you

John is one of the most professional people that I have ever had the good fortune to meet. His attention to detail is outstanding and he always gives off his best. After being given some wrong advice by another company it took longer to sort out my business with John than it would the average person. This was not John's fault. However with Johns help and diligence in guiding me through what was an absolute quagmire I managed to achieve my goal and I have gained confidence in myself to sort out problems. Thank you John for all your hard work in what was a very difficult case.
