Provide an application- there are certain proofs that you need in order to be identified. This will include your marriage certificate and the appropriate details of your home building´s insurance. 7. Legal process ˘ a solicitor´s job is to protect your interests and make sure that it is not violated.
8. Valuation process- the provider will be the one to arrange your home for valuation. This will be the basis on how much money they will give you.
The schemes may seem different but basically most of them work by giving you a home equity release and loan on the value of your property. With this method you will receive the loan as cash which is usually received on a monthly basis. Occasionally, it can be in a lump sum, and you can continue to live in your home. The company that gives you the money for the loan will recover it by selling the property after you sell your property or after your death.
