New flexible Lifetime Mortgages on the market

The Equity Release Market is constantly evolving. Providers of equity release products are continually innovating to create flexible lifetime mortgages and other products to suit clients in a variety of financial and personal circumstances.

Following the growth in popularity of equity release products in 2021, approximately 20,000 new customers have already unlocked wealth in their properties in the first quarter of this year.

How are Lifetime Mortgages adapting?

The Equity Release Council confirmed this week there are now 665 mortgage products available in the marketplace which is an increase of 65.8% from 401 products in just 2 years since 2020 as lenders continue to provide more flexibility and innovative features to provide a better solution for more customer circumstances.

One provider has just launched a new lifetime mortgage with early repayment charges that only last for the first 5 years, making the product more reflective of a standard mortgage with an unsurpassed increase in potential LTV ratio of 60.7% for those clients looking for the maximum cash release (subject to age)
