Introduction to
Equity Release Plans
Will your clients have the retirement they deserve?
Great news! We're all living longer. Latest Government figures show that the average 65 year old male will today live to the age of 81 and the average 65 year old female to the age of 84 (Source: Office of National Statistics 2006). Indeed projections suggest that life expectancies at these older ages will increase by a further three years or so by 2020. The life expectancy for people at 70 and 80 has also gone up and there are more people at this age than ever before.
Turning dreams into reality
Retirement is a time when your clients should be able to enjoy the rewards of their hard work and have the funds to turn their ideas and dreams into reality. Equity release can open up a world of possibilities by unlocking some of the value of their greatest asset – their home – without having to move. This could help ensure a more secure financial future in retirement. In addition, home improvements, a special holiday, new hobby or simply having enough money for the little luxuries that make life more enjoyable are just some of the benefits of equity release.
Help your clients cash in on their greatest asset
By owning their own home your clients almost certainly have an asset that has gone up in value. In fact, its actual value may surprise them. Average property prices have risen significantly during the last twenty years and this may mean they can release some of the cash tied up in their property.
