An introduction to home reversion plans

Home reversion plans were the forebearer of today's modern lifetime mortgages. While lifetime mortgages do offer bigger lump sums and flexible features that can be tailored to your individual needs, home reversion plans remain a good option to consider, especially if your property type is not suitable for a lifetime mortgage or you wish to protect a guaranteed percentage of your property for your beneficiaries.

So, how does it work? A home reversion equity release plan is where you sell a percentage of your property to the lender (reversion provider) in exchange for a tax-free lump sum and lifetime tenancy. Any amount unsold is still retained by you, so when the property is eventually sold, your beneficiaries inherit that percentage value of the home.

The older the last homeowner is, the more tax-free cash they will have access to on a home reversion plan. This is because the home reversion provider is likely to receive their share of the property proceeds sooner.
