The Wilshire property market and why equity release could be a great option
Bricks and mortar have long been seen as one of the best ways to invest money and there is a good reason for this: People always want to invest in their homes and own their own property. Like other investments, it has cyclical phases, and prices will rise and fall but the general trend has historically been upwards. The prices in Wiltshire are no different. Based in the South West, Wiltshire borders Dorset, Somerset, and Berkshire and has many traditional market towns and lush green countryside. According to Rightmove in 2019, the most popular sales were that of detached properties that fetched £421,000 on average. The overall average price was £288,000 with the most expensive area named as Freshford, where the average sale topped £580,000.

Lifetime mortgages are the most popular type of equity release product. The other type is known as a home reversion scheme. A lifetime mortgage is a form of equity release scheme whereby a loan is secured against your property, offering you a tax-free lump sum or a regular income to use as you wish. Interest is added to the loan throughout your lifetime, as there is no fixed period. Interest rates are usually fixed for the duration of the loan. The loan and any interest is repaid when you and your partner, if applicable, die or move into long-term residential care.
Lifetime mortgages are very flexible, you still own your home so if there is any growth in value, this belongs to you. Some plans enable you to guarantee an inheritance for your family. You can also have the option to pay the interest monthly, so it does not ‘roll up’ or make ad-hoc capital repayments. We only recommend products that have a ‘no negative equity guarantee’, so your property will never be worth less than any debt. Lifetime mortgages also allow you to move home if you wish and transfer the new mortgage to your new home, subject to meeting certain criteria.
