Repayment guides

These guides take you through the steps that you need to follow when applying to repay your equity loan:

How to repay your equity loan using your own money

How to repay your equity loan when you sell your home

How to repay your equity loan when you remortgage

Before you apply

Before you send us your application, you’ll need to get:

• a conveyancer to help with the legal part of your repayment. You can find a conveyancer on the Law Society’s website or the Council of Licensed Conveyancers’ website
• a Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) valuation report for your property, so we can work out how much you need to repay. Find a RICS surveyor in your area

and one of the following:

• a memorandum of sale if you’re repaying by selling your home
• a bank statement showing you have the funds to repay
• a new mortgage offer, if you’re repaying with a remortgage

We recommend you ask your conveyancer and lender for an estimate of the fees that they will charge you to process your equity loan repayment.
