Is equity release the right option for me?

We’ve used our adviser at Arcus for more than 13 years and find that he only gives true and honest advice. He’s never pushy and always puts our best interests first. We’ve recommended him to family and friends and will continue to do so.

Don’t go it alone

Equity release can be appealing for many reasons. For some, it’s an opportunity to release a lump sum from their home to take a holiday, buy a car, or help out a loved one. Others may need it to pay off an interest-only mortgage.

Equity release is a big decision. So big, in fact, that you don’t want to make the decision alone. And the only way to make sure you’re doing the right thing is to speak to an independent adviser.

How we can help

Equity release may not be right for everyone, and if we believe it’s not the route you should be taking, we’ll be honest with you and provide an alternative solution. It’s only when we decide that it is right for you that we find the most suitable option for your circumstances and objectives.

Our advisers hold qualifications and experience in this area and guide you through all the options and solutions available to help you achieve your goals.

This is a lifetime mortgage. To understand the features and risks, ask for a personalised illustration.

  • Honesty comes first We want you to feel confident that you’re making the right decision. If we don’t feel it’s the right route, we’ll suggest a different approach.
  • Exploring your options With a range of equity release plans available, we’ll talk you through the positives and negatives of each to help you make an informed decision.
  • Identifying your goals At the end of the day, we want what’s best for you. By discussing your goals early on, we can tailor our advice to help you achieve them.
