Equity release, also known as a lifetime mortgage, allows homeowners over 55 to access the money tied up in their property without having to move or sell. You can either borrow against your home’s value or sell a portion of it in return for a lump sum or regular payments. Some plans even offer the option to withdraw additional funds later if needed. If you still have a mortgage, part of the released funds must be used to pay it off first.
Absolutely. We are fully regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and follow the strict rules set by the Equity Release Council to ensure your protection.
With a lifetime mortgage, we guarantee that you will never owe more than the value of your home when it’s sold, as long as it’s sold for the best price possible. This means you or your estate won’t face any debt beyond your property’s worth.
The choice is yours. Whether you want to renovate your home, buy a new car, pay off debts, or simply enjoy a more comfortable retirement, the funds are yours to use as you wish. The possibilities are endless!
Here are a few of the most common reasons people choose equity release.

Here’s what to expect when you work with us for equity release, if you live in Hastings.
You get in touch for a no-obligation chat, either over the phone or face to face. Your adviser will explain how equity release works, answer initial questions, and check whether it could be suitable.
If equity release looks appropriate, your adviser will carry out a full assessment of your circumstances and recommend a plan tailored to your needs.
Your chosen lender will arrange an independent valuation of your home. This confirms the property value and the final amount you can release.
