If you\u2019re looking for a way to fund your retirement dreams without\u00a0having to move, you could consider releasing equity from your home.\u00a0An equity release mortgage is a loan secured against your home. The loan, plus interest, doesn\u2019t have to be paid until the last borrower dies, or moves out of the home into longterm care. There\u2019s no need to make monthly payments and you won\u2019t have to move. An\u00a0equity release mortgage comes with a \u201cno negative equity guarantee\u201d, which means you or your estate will never owe more than the property is sold for (subject to the product\u2019s terms and conditions).<\/p>\n<h4>Myth Busters<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>You can\u2019t lose your home<\/li>\n<li>Negative Equity guarantee \u2013 you will never owe more than the value of the property<\/li>\n<li>You can move home \u2013 your equity release mortgage can move house with you<\/li>\n<li>You can pay interest so the debt does not increase<\/li>\n<li>Inheritance protection \u2013 you can protect a percentage of your property to leave to you beneficiaries<\/li>\n<li>Repayable on death or admission to long term care<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The interest rate you take out will be fixed for the lifetime of the loan, and this can\u2019t be changed. Taking out an\u00a0equity release mortgage is a big decision, so to ensure you understand all the features and benefits, you won\u2019t be able to agree an equity release mortgage without financial advice.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>See What Amount You Could Release<\/h4>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.7&#8243;
