Last Twelve Months Tough for Over-55s
The past twelve months have been tough for over-55s as shrinking salaries have failed to compensate for the increased cost of living and contributed to a rise in the average mortgage debt.
Debt Is a Growing Problem for Over-55s
According to Aviva’s fifth Real Retirement Report, 23% of over-55s don’t expect to be free of debt until they are about 75-years-old and 15% feel they won’t ever be able to pay back what they owe.
Could Equity Release Help with the VAT Rise?
Since 4 January 2011, VAT in the UK has increased from 17.5% to 20%. This could considerably increase the cost of living. As a result some homeowners might be wondering how they are going to afford it. An equity release is one option for homeowners approaching retirement or already retired.
Growing Concern About Cost of Living Amongst Over-55s
Nearly three quarters of over-55 year olds are concerned about the austerity measures and rising cost of living led by the VAT hike in January 2011. Homeowners concerned with the increase in the cost of living might consider an equity release scheme.
The Growing Influence of Equity Release
The influence of equity release appears to be growing with much of September’s news focusing on this.
The month started with news of house price drops again but this was tempered by long term encouragement for the housing market, which included forecasted 22% rises in value by 2015.
Making Up the Startling UK Pensions Gap
New research conducted by Aviva with Deloitte has identified and, for the first time, put a real figure on the UK’s pensions gap. Much is made of the shortfall in pensions allowance that is affecting the UK and Aviva’s research shows the UK has the biggest gap in Europe.
