how we can help
We help hundreds of people find their dream home every year with our Home for Life Plan, which is a Lifetime Lease option.
We could help you:
- Move to a better area
- Live in a nicer or more suitable home
- Free up money for your retirement
- Clear mortgages, loans or other debts
- Pay off an interest only mortgage
how it works
The Home for Life Plan is a lifetime lease, which enables you to save on the cost of your next home. You pay a one-off amount, that's less than the market value, to live in a property of your choice, without any rent or repayments, for your lifetime. With the Home for Life Plan you will:
- Live rent, interest and mortgage-free
- Be legally protected and have the right to live in the property for your lifetime
- Have the option to safeguard up to 50% of the property’s future value for an inheritance
When you pass away or move into care, some or all of the property’s value will return to Homewise or our investment partners, how much depends on how you choose to set up your plan.

Making sure it's right for you
If you’ve found your perfect next home and would like to move forward with the Home for Life Plan, you’ll need to have an independent solicitor to advise you. They’ll go through the detail of the plan with you and sign a certificate to confirm this. We won’t move forward without this.

Your Home for Life Plan will be registered at Land Registry whilst your safeguarded percentage of the property’s value will be protected in a legal document called a Declaration of Trust. All of this means you can sit back, relax and rest assured that you have a home for life.
