Applying for equity release and been told that as we were married after the initial mortgage, which is in one name, the equity release must now be in joint names , joint application.
Although not an issue I'm guessing it will mean additional cost of solicitors etc. (Bank offer their own legal service for equity release but don't think it covers this)
Could there be any reason the bank are insisting on this so that might be beneficial to them financially, rather than it being a legal requirement?
