| Annotation | Equity release offers older home-owners the opportunity to mobilise some of the capital tied up in their homes. The author's study, 'Equity release: an option for older home owners' - published by the Centre for Housing Policy, University of York - confirms that additional income released makes an important contribution to people's living standards, but is unlikely to be used for major expenditure on housing disrepair or care services. |
