Release equity from your Jersey property.

If you are over 55 and own a property in Jersey or Guernsey, equity release lets you access the value tied up in your home without selling it. You continue to live in your property while receiving a tax-free lump sum or regular payments. We connect you with regulated lenders who offer lifetime mortgages and home reversion plans suited to Channel Islands properties.

  • Access tax-free cash from your property without moving home
  • Supplement your retirement income or fund one-off costs
  • No monthly repayments required on a lifetime mortgage — the loan is repaid when the property is sold
  • Jersey and Guernsey property values mean many homeowners have substantial equity to release
  • Retain the right to remain in your home for life
  • Funds can be used for almost any purpose — home improvements, gifts, travel, or care costs

Common questions

With a lifetime mortgage (the most common type), yes — you retain full ownership. With a home reversion plan, you sell a share of your property but retain the right to live there.

A lump sum may affect means-tested benefits. We recommend you seek independent financial advice before proceeding, and we can point you in the right direction.

You can, provided the equity release amount is sufficient to repay your existing mortgage. The outstanding mortgage is cleared from the proceeds before you receive any funds.

Some lenders will consider share transfer properties. Availability depends on the specific scheme and the company structure. We will check eligibility before referring you.

The property is sold and the lender is repaid from the proceeds. Any remaining equity passes to your estate. Most plans include a no-negative-equity guarantee.
