A reverse mortgage is a program designed to enable homeowners 62 years and older to convert part of the equity in their homes into tax-free cash flow* without having to sell the home, give up title, or take on a new monthly mortgage payment. Instead of making monthly payments to the lender, as with a regular mortgage, the lender makes payments to you. Visit the Reverse Mortgage FAQ section to see a list of the most commonly asked questions.
* Consult a Tax Professional.
Reverse mortgage proceeds are determined by several factors including your age, interest rates, and home value. Proceeds are tax-free and will not effect social security or medicare benefits. Borrowers have the option to take their proceeds as a cash lump sum, a line of credit, monthly payments for as long as the home is occupied as a primary residence or a combination of all.
With the passing of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, lending limits have increased even futher, which means that you may be eligible for additional proceeds. Use our Reverse Mortgage Calculator for an estimate of how much money you are eligible to receive or call 1-888-888-4834 for a more detailed quote. The most popular reverse mortgage program, accounting for over 95% of reverse mortgages in the U.S., is the Federally Insured HECM or Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (Pronounced "Heck-Um"). This Government Insured program was first signed into law in 1988 and has lately seen an explosion in popularity. In Fact, hundreds of thousands of seniors have improved their quality of life with a reverse mortgage. Fixed Rate Reverse Mortgages are gaining in popularity and is an option that should be explored by anyone considering a reverse mortgage.
