Lifetime Mortgage Further Advance

Could you release more money with your lifetime mortgage?

If the value of your home has increased enough since you took out your lifetime mortgage, you may be eligible for a Further Advance. The simplest way to check is by completing our online enquiry form.

A Further Advance is additional borrowing and a long term financial commitment. If you are eligible for a Further Advance you can only apply through a Financial Adviser. They will outline the benefits, risks and the costs involved, and make the application for you.

Any additional borrowing will be secured against your home and will be based on the terms available from us at the time you apply.
