I have worked in Financial Services for 39 years and have a wealth of experience in all areas of financial planning. I am fully qualified and strive to understand my client’s needs and objectives before finding the right solution(s) for them. I am proud to represent Viva Retirement Solutions and joined primarily as a result of working with the Directors previously. They have the same ‘client first’ attitude to business which meets my expectations and as a result many of my clients refer family and friends for me to look after. The Equity Release / Lifetime Mortgage marketplace is rapidly evolving and we pride ourselves in offering unbiased advice to our clients. If we do not think releasing equity from your property is the right thing for you, we will tell you what you should be doing instead. I personally specialise in all types of mortgages. My aim is to help you achieve your goals and protect your lifestyle in the event of the unexpected. Just to let you know - Viva Retirement Solutions fee for arranging a Lifetime mortgage is £995 payable only on completion. Research has shown that some companies charge over £1,500 or 1.95% of the loan, whatever is greater, for this service including a letter of suitability. I am married with a wonderful wife, two grown up children and a grandson. I enjoy a variety of sports, although I do not play many now as we spend a lot of time travelling. Whatever your needs, feel free to contact me for a no obligation discussion to see if we can work together. Equity release will reduce the value of your estate and could affect eligibility to means tested benefits. I will be able to assess and explain this to you. A lifetime mortgage is a long-term commitment which could accumulate interest and is secured against your home. Equity release is not right for everyone and may reduce the value of your estate.
