You should always seek advice from a qualified independent financial adviser. ‘Independent’ means they are not restricted to selling schemes from just one or two firms.
When choosing a financial adviser:
• Check that your adviser is authorised by the FCA;
• Understand whether your adviser is independent or tied to a particular provider;
• Check whether your adviser has passed the relevant exams and is qualified to deal with equity release;
• Ensure your adviser understands your circumstances and discusses different options with you, not just one;
• Always review documents and forms carefully before signing anything.
Costs
The costs and fees of setting up equity release plans will vary between different providers.
Typically the costs will include:
• Completion, arrangement or application fees that cover administration costs;
• Valuation fees which vary depending on how much your property is worth;
• Legal fees;
• Early repayment charge if you want to pay off your loan early.
