Reverse mortgage and home equity release: ..Tapping into your home's value
Solicitor Guarantee Certificate Adelaide
CPC Lawyers are well-versed in providing legal advice to individuals who opt to become guarantors for borrowers, whether it be for individuals, companies, trusts, or self-managed superannuation funds.
This guarantee is a promise to the lender that they will meet the obligation of loan repayments if the borrower fails to live up to their financial lenders' requirements.
As the individual giving the guarantee, known as the Guarantor, in most instances receives little and/or nothing out this arrangement, whilst exposing themselves to high financial risk, financial institutions require the Guarantor to obtain independent legal advice before signing any guarantee documents.
This includes understanding the risks involved, such as what happens when the borrower defaults on the loan, and the possibility of losing your personal real estate and any other valuable personal assets.
This independent legal advice also provides the financial institution distributing the loan, with the assurance that you have made a free and informed decision to act as Guarantor for the borrower.
