One thing to remember about equity release is that it is an umbrella term for a number of different financial products. This means that the criteria for applicant’s can vary between the equity release products. So, if you are doubtful that you are suitable for one of the equity release products then it is worthwhile to call us for a discussion anyway to gauge your suitability for equity release in general.

One thing to remember, however, is that equity release is only for those aged 55 or over. This is non-negotiable amongst all respectable providers. If a provider is stating that equity release is available for under 55s then it is likely you are being sold another product with the large potential of being mis-sold an unsuitable scheme.
