Equity Release
What is Equity Release?
It is a way for you to release money from your home by way of a mortgage. Various schemes are in place, some reputable, some not.
Advice is important before you agree to such a scheme as you can under some schemes end up losing a large percentage of your home. Many people are putting these in place to release money to help their children buy their own homes.
