Equity release is, in a nutshell, a way to unlock the value of your property and turn it into cash which lets you access – or 'release' – the equity (cash) tied up in your home, if you're 55+. The most popular type of equity release is a lifetime mortgage, which is a loan secured against your home. You can release the money as a single cash lump sum or in several smaller amounts following an initial lump sum.

Equity release may involve a home reversion plan or a lifetime mortgage, which is secured against your property and will reduce the value of your estate and impact funding long-term care.
Equity release requires paying off any existing mortgage. Any money released, plus accrued interest would be repaid upon death, or moving into long-term care.
Advice is required before proceeding with equity release.
Equity release reduces your estate's value and may affect any means-tested benefits you're eligible for. A lifetime mortgage, which is a loan secured against your home, is the most popular form of equity release and you will still own your home. Think carefully before releasing equity and make sure it’s right for you.
