We do not advise on equity release but can refer you to a recommended adviser.
Equity release is typically available to people who are over the age of 55 and have their own home with a significant amount of equity, but don’t have enough money or income for their needs. By releasing equity in the form of a lifetime mortgage or home reversion plan, it enables the individual(s) to remain in their home and raise money for things such as:
Where equity release is a suitable solution and you take out a lifetime mortgage or home reversion plan, the money does not usually need to be paid back or the home sold until the last remaining borrower dies or moves into care, although this may not be the case, for example if you make repayments to preserve as much of the inheritable estate as possible.
Whilst there are benefits for people in this situation, equity release isn’t for everyone and the benefits need to be weighed up alongside drawbacks, such as equity release can:
Also, there may be alternative options available to you that need to be explored before taking the equity release route, such as consideration of a conventional mortgage as an alternative, moving to a smaller home, using any savings or investments and potentially selling the home and moving into rented accommodation or living with children or other relatives.
Don’t worry as we can help you understand all the features and drawbacks so you can make a fully informed decision.
As financial advisers with the required equity release qualification and training, we can assess your individual circumstances and needs, and then give you expert advice on the right course of action for you. The benefits need to outweigh the drawbacks to ensure equity release is more suitable than alternative methods of raising funds.
It’s often said that you can’t buy peace of mind; however that’s exactly what our financial service does, as you can rest assured knowing you have the right solution for you.
It is advised that customers seek independent legal advice before entering into a legally binding equity release contract.
EQUITY RELEASE MAY REQUIRE A LIFETIME MORTGAGE OR HOME REVERSION PLAN. TO UNDERSTAND THE FEATURES AND RISKS, ASK FOR A PERSONALISED ILLUSTRATION.
THIS FORM OF LENDING IS MOST SUITABLE FOR THOSE OVER 65, HOWEVER, IT’S POSSIBLE TO DO THIS IF YOU ARE OVER 55. IT IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT THESE ARE LIFETIME MORTGAGES AND TO UNDERSTAND THEIR FEATURES AND RISKS, YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE A PERSONALISED ILLUSTRATION.
After much searching and initial enquiries with finance / investment management advisors it proved the right decision to go with Metcalf. At all stages confirmation that solution options met with my needs was paramount and always with a relaxed very professional approach. Louisa and the team are extremely knowledgeable.”
I have had a relationship with the Metcalf Wealth Managers team since 2017, and they have been very helpful in amalgamating various personal pension schemes into a SIPP and another longer-term pension structure. The team have also been integral regarding monthly drawdowns from the SIPP in a tax-efficient way, keeping me fully informed on the corresponding paperwork trail as necessary. I fully recommend their advisory services accordingly.
Metcalf Wealth Managers provide a highly professional service in a very friendly and helpful way which I value and appreciate. Louisa is extremely knowledgeable and explains matters properly without being confusing. I trust her guidance, advice and recommendations and I feel that my investments are being well managed and are in very capable hands.
I have been very pleased with the quality of work you carried out on my behalf and would be happy to both recommend you to others and approach you for your assistance again once my finances and/or situation requires it.
