**No Advice Fees! ** I have worked in the advice industry for the last 30 + years advising and developing solutions for client to meet their long term needs and objectives. Over the last 2 years I have chosen to specialise in Equity Release as my focus and to help those clients who are in a position where this is an option for them making what can seem a complex and daunting decision easy and worry free. There are no advice fees if you come to Aviva Equity Release Advice, where I'm an Equity Release Adviser. I offer advice on lifetime mortgages from Aviva Equity Release UK Ltd. I believe simplicity is the key to easily understood financial advice and is a key requirement for people at all stages of life. I have worked with clients of all ages from those just starting out to those looking to enjoy the later years. I offer appointments by telephone, video, through the U.K and also face to face through Wales. I have chosen to work with Aviva as they share the same ethos of putting the customer at the heart of the advice experience which I have been doing for the last 30 years. Our focus is purely on a great customer outcome, and we work continually to improve and refine the client journey. Aviva have been giving Equity Release advice for over 25 years and have a great reputation in my chosen specialism. The fact that I can do this on a no obligation fee free basis is also a great incentive not only for myself but for the many clients that have joined us in realising their objectives by unlocking the equity in their property.
