Put Your Equity to Work for You

with a Reverse Mortgage

What is a reverse mortgage?

A reverse mortgage is a unique type of home loan that allows you to withdraw a portion of your home equity. This Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) loan is FHA’s reverse mortgage program.

To qualify, these homeowners must be at least 62 years old, own their home outright or have a low loan balance that can be paid off with the reverse proceeds.

In addition, while a reverse mortgage is not based on your credit score or evidence of an income stream, you must live in your home as your primary residence. Plus, you need to have the resources to pay ongoing property taxes, homeowners insurance and HOA dues (if applicable). And you must meet HUD’s eligibility requirements.

So think about it. Are you worried about paying your current mortgage? How about getting needed home repairs, paying medical costs or simply enjoying a lifestyle you can afford?

Seriously, if your funds are stressed to the point that you may be unable to remain in the home you love, then a reverse mortgage could be the answer. And we need to talk. I can help you convert the equity in your home into a loan that better fits your lifestyle and financial objectives.

With a reverse mortgage, the house pays YOU.

  • No more monthly mortgage payments.
  • Proceeds received as a lump sum, monthly receipt, use of a line of credit or any combination you want.
  • Loan proceeds are tax-free and do not affect your social security, Medicare or private retirement benefits.

* You must live in your home as your primary residence and have the resources to pay ongoing property taxes, homeowners insurance and HOA fees (if applicable). Failure to do so will result in a loan default that ends in foreclosure. You must also meet HUD’s eligibility requirements.

Can I purchase a home
with a reverse mortgage?

Many homeowners don’t know this, but YES.
You CAN purchase a home by using the proceeds from the sale of your home
to down-size or up-size your next primary residence.

This is an exciting opportunity!

Sound interesting so far? Consider this:

Reverse mortgages allow you to stay in your home as long as you wish.
Since aging in place is often economical and good for the soul,
reverse mortgages are a great solution.

How about using your proceeds to pay off those high interest credit cards, 
pay off or buy a new car, supplement your retirement income or take a dream vacation.

Loan proceeds can be used however you wish. So many possibilities!
