    In theory yes, but the actual lender choice will have to depend on the details - for example rental income, location (some lenders don't lend in Scotland), your earned income, whether you own your resi home, the property itself (e.g. whether it's an ex-council flat with deck access), what the equity release is for... just to name a few aspects that lenders consider.
