Free surveys for Hodge Lifetime's shared growth option
As house prices continued to decline over the first half of this year, figures from Hodge Lifetime, the UK’s longest established equity release provider, highlight a 40% growth in popularity of its home reversion product compared to the previous six months.
To help intermediaries capitalize on this increasing demand, Hodge Lifetime is now offering free surveys for all clients opting for its Shared Growth Option up to a maximum property value of £250k.
Allowing clients to sell between 30% and 90% of their property value in return for a tax-free cash sum, the Hodge Lifetime Shared Growth Option appeals to clients who specifically require the security of knowing the percentage of their property given up by taking out the plan.
Jon King, Managing Director at Hodge Lifetime, commented: “Following the regulation of reversion products in 2007 it is pleasing to see business volumes increase as clients recognize the benefits of this type of scheme. The free survey offer will help IFA’s market this product to their clients.”
