Equity release is the process of borrowing against the value already built up in a property - the difference between what the property is worth and what's still owed. Instead of selling the asset to access that capital, an equity release loan converts the equity into cash while you continue to own and use the property.
Where a bank typically requires a full refinance and a fresh serviceability assessment, a non-bank equity release loan can sit alongside an existing first mortgage as a second mortgage - leaving your current loan untouched. This is particularly useful when the existing loan is on attractive terms you don't want to lose, or when timing matters more than rate.
At Commercial Property Funding, equity release is assessed commercially - focused on asset quality and the strength of the deal. There's no rigid credit model and no requirement to provide tax returns or full financial statements.
