Equity Release
Equity Release mortgages allow you to release cash from your property without the need to move home. To be eligible for one of these plans, you need to be a UK homeowner aged 55-95. The money you release can be spent in any way you like and, what’s more, there are typically no monthly repayments to make. You may stay in your home for life, or until you decide you want (or need) to move. Our fully qualified Equity Release Advisers are available to guide you in this specialist area.

Critical Illness
Serious illness can wreak havoc on both an individual and their dependant’s financial security. Illnesses such as heart attack, stroke and cancer can cause an individual to never return to work, work in a reduced role, or perhaps return to work after a period of convalescence. The complete or partial loss of income can come at a time of maximum stress. Utilising the many innovative products available to us we will recommend the most suitable to mitigate the risk.

Income Replacement
The vast majority of us are reliant on our income to pay the bills and maintain lifestyle. We have bills to pay whether they are essentials such as mortgage, food and utilities or the luxuries such as holidays, eating out and gym memberships. However what would happen should the income stop? How long could bills be paid and lifestyle maintained on savings or benefits? These are the questions we seek answers to in order to establish if an income replacement policy would help you mitigate the risk. We have a vast array of policies available to us, ensuring that the most suitable is always recommended.

Unemployment Cover
It is increasingly unlikely that we will stay with the same employer for all of our working lives. While a career change will often be in our own hands the loss of employment because of redundancy is not and can cause severe financial difficulties. We will assess your attitude to such a risk and look to mitigate where appropriate.
