El producto en detalle

The most expensive mistake in equity release is borrowing money before it is needed. A client who takes £120,000 as a lump sum and spends £40,000 of it over the first decade has paid rolled-up interest for ten years on £80,000 that sat in a bank account.

Capital Select Options is built to prevent exactly that. An approved facility is agreed at outset, the client draws an initial advance from it, and the rest sits in reserve. Nothing is charged on undrawn funds — no facility fee, no interest, nothing. When more is needed, the client draws from £2,000 upwards and interest starts on that amount from that date.

Each drawdown is at the fixed rate applying when it is taken, which cuts both ways: a client drawing in a lower rate environment benefits, and one drawing in a higher one does not. The reserve is valid for fifteen years, which is long enough for the arrangement to serve as a standing facility rather than a series of applications.

The comparison with a lump sum is the whole argument, and it is arithmetic rather than opinion — the worked example below sets the two side by side on identical assumptions.

Cómo funciona

Qué ocurre, en orden

Desde la primera consulta hasta el momento en que la cobertura, el contrato o la línea queda en vigor.

  1. A facility is approved

    The total the client could borrow, based on age and property value. Nothing is charged on the part not drawn.

  2. An initial advance is taken

    From £10,000. Interest begins on this amount only.

  3. Further drawdowns as needed, from £2,000

    On the drawdown request form. Each is at the fixed rate applying on the date it is taken.

  4. Interest rolls up on drawn funds only

    Each tranche compounds from its own date, not from the date the facility was approved.

  5. Repayment on death or long-term care

    From the property sale, with the no negative equity guarantee and the same inheritance and downsizing protections available.

Cálculos ilustrativos, para que la forma del producto se vea en lugar de describirse. Nada de lo que aquí figura es una oferta ni una proyección.

The same money, drawn in stages against taken at once

A £120,000 facility, £80,000 actually needed over ten years, at an illustrative 6.5%. Both columns use identical assumptions — the only difference is when the money was taken.

Illustrative at a constant 6.5%. In practice each drawdown is at the rate applying on its own date, so the real comparison depends on where rates go — but the principle that undrawn money costs nothing does not depend on the rate at all.

Preguntas

Lo que los corredores nos preguntan sobre este producto

Is anything charged on the reserve?

No. Undrawn funds carry no interest and no facility charge. That is the whole design.

What rate applies to a later drawdown?

The fixed rate applying on the date of that drawdown, which may be higher or lower than the initial advance rate. Each tranche then keeps its own rate for life.

What happens after fifteen years?

The reserve validity is fifteen years. A client who expects to need funds beyond that should discuss it with their broker at outset rather than discovering it later.
