Equity release calculator

Try our calculator to see how much money you could release from your home

Equity release could open doors to the retirement you want. Just enter a few basic details into our calculator to see how much you could borrow. There's zero pressure or obligation afterwards.

Why use our equity release calculator?

Using our calculator is a quick and simple way to get an idea of how much money you could unlock from the value of your home if you’re eligible to take out our equity release. Equity release is a way of turning some of the value of your home into tax-free cash. At Aviva, we offer a type of equity release called a lifetime mortgage. It's a long term loan secured on your home, which you can apply for if you're aged 55 or over. You won't need to make monthly repayments - though you can, if you want to reduce the amount you owe. Interest builds up through the life of the mortgage and is charged on the total amount borrowed and the interest already added. This quickly increases the amount you owe. The loan is normally paid back - along with any interest that's built up - after the sale of your home, when you die or go into long-term care.

Remember that taking out a lifetime mortgage will reduce the amount of inheritance you can leave. It may also affect your tax position and whether you can claim welfare benefits.

You can use our calculator to see how much money you could release with our lifetime mortgage. All you need to do is tell us your age, the type of home you live in and how much it's worth.
