TIPS!

✦ MINIMUM AGE FOR EQUITY RELEASE IS 55, ALTHOUGH SOME SCHEMES ARE ONLY AVAILABLE FROM 60.

✦ HOW MUCH YOU CAN BORROW WITH THE MORTGAGE OPTION DEPENDS ON YOUR AGE, HEALTH AND VALUE OF YOUR PROPERTY.

✦ IN ALL CASES, CHECK ALL COSTS INVOLVED ALONG WITH ANY ADMIN FEES. IF YOU SELL UP AND DOWNSIZE, THERE MAY BE AN EARLY REDEMPTION FEE.
