I was introduced to Family BS, when I was elderly (and had doubts I would eligible). Family provided me with a product that fit my needs. As I now approach 80 I am able to redeem my mortgage early and Ewen & Lisa guided me through the process in a very helpful and supportive way. Reviewed on: 22nd July 2026
