If you own a property and don’t have a mortgage or any other type of loan secured on it, then the equity of the property belongs to you and you alone. In other words – the property is all yours and if you were to sell it you would be able to keep all the proceeds of that sale.
If you have a mortgage or another type of loan which is secured on your property, then the equity in the property is the amount you would be left with after the loans are paid off. For example, if you have a mortgage of £70,000 and you sell your house for £200,000, then you would have £130,000 profit. So in this case you have cash in your property to the value of £130,000.
Of course, unless a sale actually takes place the value of your property can only be estimated. That is why a valuation usually has to take place if you want to release any of the cash in your property – the valuation sets the price at which the property might be able to be sold.
So how can you release cash in your property?
Cash release schemes offer a way of increasing income over a period of time, perhaps to ‘top up’ a dwindling pension or to allow the home owner to take a few holidays or make a major purchase. As long as you have the equity, you can take advantage of this option at any time.
Is there any way of releasing the ‘locked up’ value, or cash, that you have in your home?
With Property Rescue the answer is ‘yes’. Property Rescue offer a cash release option that means you can raise money from the asset in which you live. You can either sell your home and downsize, or sell and rent back your home through our Rent Back Experts division, releasing the equity within in.
You don’t need to be retired and you don’t have to have a property in tip top condition, or live in a desirable residential location.
Furthermore, Property Rescue will pay the valuation and legal fees you incur during the transaction. This means that the price you are offered by Property Rescue for your home will be the price you actually get – without any deductions.
Property Rescue make the process simple by making contact with your mortgage lender (if you have one) on your behalf and arranging to pay off your outstanding mortgage; they also instruct solicitors on your behalf who will take care of all the necessary legal documentation.
