In a broader mortgage market of £230bn of gross lending, plus not far away from £200bn in product transfer activity, you might question as an adviser whether later life lending is a sector I really need to focus on, or indeed delve into.

Air Group has launched a panel proposition called Air Select.
The service will offer advisers support and resources to help them develop and grow their later life businesses.
It will provide a structured distribution channel for later life advisers, enhancing the options for both existing Air Mortgage Club members and partners looking to enter the sector.
At launch, members will have access to a range of over 200 later life and equity release products from Canada Life, Legal & General Home Finance and more2life.
According to Air Select, the proposition will provide access to a marketing library, sales process document suite and professional development via its training scheme.
