Seniors Equity Loan

If you’re 60 or over, HomeStart’s Seniors Equity Loan could help you unlock your home’s equity to start something great.

After years of putting money into your home, it’s only reasonable to free-up some of that equity to spend on what’s really important today such as:

a new car
a dream holiday
home improvements
supplementing your regular income to help you live more comfortably.

You can receive your funds as a lump sum or on an ad hoc basis.

The Seniors Equity Loan is a reverse mortgage loan that doesn’t require regular loan repayments. It includes a ‘no negative equity’ guarantee, so you’ll never owe more than the value of your home.

Repayments to your Seniors Equity Loan are voluntary. You can choose to make repayments or defer repaying the loan until the house is sold or the last co-borrower moves out or passes away.

Special offer

For a limited time, Seniors Card holders receive a $200 Coles Myer voucher upon settlement. See terms and conditions.

To make sure this loan is a good choice for you, we suggest that you seek independent financial and legal advice about your situation. If you receive benefits from Centrelink please contact them to discuss your options.
