Equity Release

If you are approaching, or are already in retirement, Equity Release could be the boost to your finances you’ve been searching for.

Equity release is a way for homeowners aged 55 and over that own a property with a value of at least £70,000 to release tax-free funds from their home.

It’s also one of the biggest financial decisions you might consider. That’s why we take the time to fully understand your needs and clearly explain all the possible options available, without any obligation. We pride ourselves on providing friendly, impartial advice and establish if a Lifetime mortgage is suitable for you.

A simple initial chat can help put you at ease as to whether it’s right for you - or not. The equity release market can seem complex, but by getting to know you, we will find out what is most important, helping you prioritise your needs so that we can recommend the most suitable solution that has been tailor-made for you.

For extra peace of mind, we only recommend products that meet the Equity Release Councils high standards. To learn more and to find out if equity release could be right for you please contact us.


This is a lifetime mortgage. To understand the features and risks please ask for a personalised illustration. Equity release includes Lifetime Mortgages and Home Reversion Schemes. We can advise and arrange Lifetime Mortgages and will refer to an approved specialist for Home Reversion schemes. There may be a fee for advice on lifetime mortgages. The precise amount will depend on your circumstances and will be agreed with you before proceeding but estimate this to be £495, payable on completion. A lifetime mortgage may impact your entitlement to means-tested benefits and the inheritance you may leave.


Kind Words

  • “We recently decided to look at Equity Release but we're fed up with dealing with faceless people, so we were overjoyed to find Marcus & Annette of Pellow Mortgage Solutions who lived in Willingdon & offered face to face meetings. Dealing with Marcus & Annette was a breeze & they helped us step by step thru the minefield of Equity Release, always at the end of phone, always happy to help & advise us every step of the way. We cannot praise Pellow Mortgage Solutions enough & they epitomise the way that every company should do business. If you are looking at Equity Release or a Mortgage forget the rest & go with the best."

  • “Marcus was outstanding in professionalism, support and he always held a very caring & understanding attitude. We had essentially given up on home ownership, but due to Marcus' support we were able to buy our first home and Marcus was vital to us getting the very best deal. Marcus' knowledge was phenomenal and he repeatedly made time to visit us, talk with us and help us understand and simplify the otherwise daunting and complex process. If we ever buy again, we would always buy with Marcus' help. We cannot recommend his insight, support and services enough. Thank you for all of your help”

  • “Pellow mortgage solutions, was suggested l use by my solicitors for financial advice in respect of equity release. I made appointment for a visit to my home to discuss how equity release works. Both Marcus and Annette Pellow were excellent service in discussing the pros and cons of equity release. We went through the process without pressure, on me and always looked at the best way for me and the needs. It was made a relaxed meeting on all the meetings that followed. They said at any time they were available if I had questions on the package they successfully found for me. This was a company that I would recommend to anyone who is considering a very important step into equity release…ten out of ten. I’m sure you would be very pleased with Pellow mortgage solutions.”

  • "Marcus was recommended to us in 2019 and we will never use anyone else again. My husband is a CIS worker and Marcus found the best rates for us. In 2020 we called on him again for some advice and even though we didn't need to do any switching, he was still more than happy to help. Here we are in 2021 and back to Marcus to help us move house. Marcus has always been polite, responsive and very efficient. He makes everything clear and easy to understand. I would highly recommend him to anyone".
