Understand various Equity Release UK schemes

When we are young, we hardly think of our old age. We usually spent almost all our earnings in our younger days and save the least for the future. Therefore at the old age, we usually tend to suffer from financial difficulties. In those days, you can hardly earn some extra money to reduce your monetary trouble as you are bound to suffer from the old age problems. Thus it will be hard for you to manage in such condition within your limited savings. Under such circumstances, the equity release schemes can be very beneficial for your enhanced financial troubles.

The first and foremost condition to avail any equity release schemes is the ownership of the property. You have to have any kind of property on your own name. Using the property, you can assure your financial security for the rest of your life. The best part of these schemes is the lump sum amount that will be offered to you by the different organisations against your own property. Under these schemes, the ownership may not be on your own but you will have the privilege to live in your own property. There are also some schemes that offer the facility to use the property in some parts and get fixed monthly incomes against the remaining part of your property.

There are various equity release UK schemes available in the market. But the most popular two schemes are the lifetime mortgage plan and home reversion plan. Under the lifetime mortgage plan, the owner of the property usually receives the lump sum of the money against his total property. The repayment of the money will be done by selling the property after the death of the owner. Though the legal rights of the property gets transferred to the money lending company at the time of the contract. Under other interesting equity release UK schemes, the owner of the property can sell all or part of the property to a third party, usually the home reversion company or an individual. This ensures that all of part of his property belongs to the third party while in return; he gets the regular income against the property. The best part of this equity release scheme is that the owner can live the rest of his life in that part of property.

In this way, anyone with some property on his name can secure his financial future by opting any of these equity release UK schemes.
