Would my home be at risk if I did an IVA? I have no equity in the property or endowment.

No - but you would have to agree to have the property revalued during the final year, and then raise any equity at that time subject to a maximum 85% loan to value borrowing. With regard to the endowment, this will have a value, and creditors may well want to see this realised as part of the IVA. Is the policy assigned to the mortgage company?

It may well be that it gains equity in the 4 years to the re valuation. It will probably still have to be valued just in case.

OK - it is how you read and interpret the post. If he has an endowment attached to his mortgage then yes it will have to be valued.
