Equity Release customers are labelled as vulnerable customers and therefore are not able to opt-out of advice.  As such, this manual outlines the advice and sales process to be followed in the course of carrying out a Lifetime Mortgage, Home Reversion Plan or Home Purchase Plan.  It also provides guidance on how to handle advice that has been rejected by the customer.

FORMAT: All documents are downloadable via email upon receipt of payment.
