‘A big 10/10 for Kevin. That’s for sure!’

We all have different goals in life – professional success, have a large family, travel the world, – yet they all lead to the same aim: to enjoy life. This was the motivating factor that inspired Mr and Mrs K to consider how they could find the means to enjoy their life and do more of what truly makes them happy.

Undoubtedly, when it comes to fulfilling some of our happiness criteria, the question of money often arises and how to find the cash to fund our dreams and ambitions. Mr and Mrs K didn’t have to look far to find a possible option to access the funds they needed.

A close family member had recently taken out equity release with Kevin Woods in order to fund home improvements. With little knowledge of this financial vehicle, Mrs K researched information about equity release herself reviewing providers across the whole market to see if it was something that appealed. She concluded that she would definitely like to work with a local expert who was able to provide a more personal touch than a large corporate organisation where she felt she would end up communicating with a call centre or switch board.

‘When we contacted Kevin, he made the effort to accommodate our first meeting in our home and came here to discuss everything with us. He made it very clear that he would make sure that equity release was the right option for us before recommending any products. He was so friendly, not at all pushy and very approachable. We wanted to talk with a real person and have personal communication and Kevin certainly provided us with that.’

After searching the whole of market, Kevin recommended a product which suited Mr and Mrs K’s requirements and the process of releasing equity from their home began.

Thankfully it all completed quickly and within a matter of months their funds had been released and they were able to start to use their money as planned.

‘We were amazed at how quickly the whole process took. It has been such a relief to have finally paid off the mortgage, finished paying for our car and not having any outstanding debts! We can now press on with our many plans to enjoy life while we still can!’

Her sister is still enjoying the financial support that equity release has given her and has recently instructed new fences to be put up in her garden which had fallen down!

They meet weekly for a family coffee catch up and share news of their latest adventures, be it their home improvement projects or travel plans.

‘We are both so grateful to be able to do the things we want to which require money thanks to equity release. Kevin was so good with both of us and we owe him such thanks for the fantastic personal service her gave us. A big 10/10 to Keven that’s for sure!’

So, whatever your life’s ambitions may be, if you are struggling to find the funds to move forward, maybe a conversation with Kevin could also help you unlock the cash in your home and bring some of that joy that we are all striving to find.

Equity release will reduce the value of your estate and may also affect your entitlement to means-tested benefits. You should always think carefully before securing a loan against your home.

Unless you decide to go ahead with a plan, our service is completely free of charge, as our fixed advice fee of £1,695 is only payable on completion of a plan.

A lifetime mortgage is the most popular form of equity release, and is a loan secured against your home that’s typically repaid when you pass away or go into long-term care.
