Equity Release in Gloucester

For retired homeowners in Gloucester, an equity release policy may be a useful way of freeing up any capital that is locked in away in their home. Customers can also typically free up their money without having to move out of their property at all, making an equity release highly appealing in certain circumstances.

If you are looking for an equity release in Gloucester, please see the link below for a quote on an equity release policy.

These schemes are usually promoted as being useful for older people who have paid off the mortgage on their property, and are also retired. Although the money taken from an equity release can be used for a variety of different purposes, many customers choose to use the money to supplement their pensions when heading into their later years.

Equity release in Gloucester can also be used by landlords who want to use the value of their home to purchase a buy to let property, or by anyone that considers themselves to be ‘property rich but cash poor’ and would like to utilise their assets.

Home Reversion Plan
Using a home reversion plan, the customer may choose to either sell a portion of or their entire property to a provider in exchange for a cash lump sum.

Although the home is technically ‘sold’ to the provider, the customer can generally continue to live at the property for the rest of their life. Once they are gone, the property is then sold and a share of their assets will go to the provider to cover the cost of the loan.

Lifetime Mortgages
Lifetime mortgages are slightly different, instead of selling the property to the provider; the customer instead takes out a loan with their house used as security.

The end result is the same in that the property will be sold to cover the cost of the loan, but customers can generally only expect a lump sum in terms of a loan, and not a regular income.

Equity release is available to UK homeowners aged between 55 and 95 and allows you to release capital from your home. The money released can be used for any purpose, and can be taken as a tax free lump sum or in smaller amounts if preferred.

Key features include:

  • Available to homeowners aged 55 to 95
  • Release capital tax free from your home
  • You choose how to spend the money
  • Lump sum & drawdown options
  • You cannot release equity without taking advice

You can release equity from your home with either a lifetime mortgage or a home reversion scheme. The most popular type of equity release is a lifetime mortgage, where a loan is secured against your home & you retain full ownership of your home.

Key features include:
  • The amount you can release will depend on your age
  • The minimum age you can be is aged 55 with 95 as an upper limit
  • The minimum property value on which an equity release plan can be secured on is £70,000
  • The older you are and the higher the value of your property the more equity you can release

When capital is release by the plan provider, instead of making monthly interest repayments, interest is usually added to the loan. this is known as compound interest. At the end of the plan (usually when either of you pass away or move into long term care) your house will be sold & the equity release plan provider will be paid back from the house sale proceeds with the balance paid to your estate.

 

There are different types of equity release plan and can be summarised as follows:

Lump sum lifetime mortgage
  • Provides a tax free lump sum secured against your home giving you access to a pot of cash.
  • Funds released can be used for almost any purpose
  • You retain full ownership of your home
  • Interest rolls up and is added to the loan. Typically repaid when you pass away or move into long term care
  • Some plans allow you to guarantee  a percentage of the future value of your home for your loved ones’ inheritance. Other options include the option to pay monthly interest
  • You need to take advice before you can take a lifetime mortgage out
Drawdown lifetime mortgage
  • Lets you drawdown cash in stages after an initial lump sum
  • You will only pay interest on the funds drawn down
  • These plans are more flexible so you do not miss out on means tested benefits
  • Drawn down funds can be used for any purpose e.g. home improvements, pay for university fees
Home reversion plan
  • Need to be aged 65+ to qualify
  • Involves selling all or part of your home for a tax free cash lump sum
  • The money you receive can be used for any purpose
  • Your share of the property will benefit from house price increases
  • When you pass away or sell your home, the home reversion provider takes its percentage from the sale proceeds.

A lifetime mortgage is a loan secured against your house that allow you to release some of the equity you have built up.

Also known as equity release mortgages, like retirement interest only (RIO) mortgages they are only available to over-55s, and the loan is fully paid off when the last person living in the property dies, sells the home or goes into care.

The main difference is that RIO mortgages require borrowers to pass affordability checks and commit to making regular payments for life. With an equity release plan there are no such checks required.

There are a number of variables that can determine how much you may be able release from your home.

The key thing are your age and the value of your property.

The table below provides an approximate indication of how much equity you can expect to release from your home depending upon how old you are from a lifetime mortgage (Home Reversion Plans may offer a higher amount):
