How does it work?
With this plan you sell part of or your entire home to a reversion plan company in exchange for a tax-free cash lump sum and a guaranteed lifetime lease with no monthly repayments to meet.
You can stay in your home either rent free or by paying a nominal rent for as long as you choose, and you can guarantee an inheritance to your beneficiaries. Both you and the reversion scheme company share in any increase in your property's value, providing you have not exchanged 100% of its value.

DISADVANTAGES
- You do not typically receive the full market value of the share of the property you sell. This is due to the fact that the reversion plan company gives you the absolute right to live in it rent-free for the rest of your life. They, however, do not make their return on investment for a number of years.
- You only benefit from any rises in house prices on the proportion you still own.
- Reversion plans cannot usually be reversed as you are selling part of your home.
- Reversion plan providers do not usually guarantee further advances.
- If you choose to end the plan early, charges may apply.
- Your tax position and eligibility for means tested benefits may be affected.
