The Lenders have stringent lending criteria that must be met for them to lend on your property. An expert equity release solicitor will, through their experience, be aware of the requirements and will identify all documents required at the outset of the transaction to enable you to fulfil the requirements. Additionally, the Equity Release Council provides safeguards for the borrower which include ensuring that legal advice has been provided, your identity confirmed and that you have the capacity to enter the contract of your own free will.
We make the process as streamlined and stress free as possible by identifying all requirements as soon as possible and liaise with the lender’s solicitors at the earliest opportunity regarding any more unusual circumstances, so that we can agree how to resolve any anticipated issues.
