About Homewise, Covering Suffolk

CO3 8RQ
Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0

Homewise is a family-run business and we have been helping people to find the right property for their needs for over 45 years. While our office is based in West Sussex, we help home-movers all over the country with our Home for Life Plan.

It's a Lifetime Lease option which enables those aged 60 and over to secure their next property for less than the market value. By choosing a Lifetime Lease, our customers benefit from paying a one-off amount to live in the property of their choice free from rent, mortgage, or interest repayments. This can be applied to pretty much any property that's on the market with any estate agent anywhere in England or Wales, subject to certain property criteria such as being of standard construction.

The amount paid is subject to age, personal circumstance and property criteria, and ranges from 8.5% - 59% less than the market value. Plus, there is always the option to secure a guaranteed cash inheritance for loved ones too. For an indication of how you could benefit with a Lifetime Lease on your next home, try the calculator on our website and instantly see a new property price you could look up to and an estimate on how much you could save.

We pride ourselves on our first-class service and family values, and ensure every customer is treated just like that - part of the family. Our aim is to help our customers find happiness, security, and financial peace of mind for their future.
