Extra Income for Your Golden Years

Reverse mortgages are different from most lending products in a couple of important ways:

Tapping into your equity through a reverse mortgage is like getting an additional income stream during retirement.

Repair or improve your home or go on a vacation—whatever you want to do with the money is up to you.

What is a Reverse Mortgage?

How does a reverse mortgage work? When you take out a reverse mortgage, usually a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM), you borrow against your home equity.

This is a way of tapping into your hard-earned investment in your home.

Reverse mortgages are only available to seniors aged 62 and above, but only a single borrower on the loan needs to meet this requirement.

As your reverse mortgage loan officer, Maureen Martin can answer all of your questions and walk you through the process during your consultation. She will take the time that big box reverse mortgage companies don’t, ensuring that a reverse mortgage is the ideal match for your needs.

With a Reverse Mortgage, You Can …

Have other plans or ideas for how to use extra income during retirement? With a reverse mortgage, you are in charge of how you use your money.

And since you can opt for a lump sum and receive the money all at once, you can even cover large expenses upfront.

With a Reverse Mortgage, You Can Live in Your Home As Long As You Like

When does a reverse mortgage come due? You do not need to worry about paying off the loan, nor do you ever have to leave your house.

No payments on a reverse mortgage are required until a maturity event occurs.

Examples of maturity events include:

The death of the last borrower
Selling the house

So, as long as you choose to stay in your home for the rest of your life, you never need to worry about paying on the loan.

How is a Reverse Mortgage Paid Off?

The balance on the loan will pass to your heirs once the last borrower on the loan passes away.

At that point, they have options. They can either sell the home to repay the reverse mortgage, or they can keep the home and choose another means to pay off the loan.

Reverse Mortgage Benefits

A reverse mortgage allows you to draw from the investment you have already made. You will be able to increase your standard of living without leaving your home.
You can choose from any of a number of flexible disbursement options, including a lump sum. This is ideal if you need to pay for a surgery or other major medical procedure, an expensive repair, or any other large expense.
You can use the income from the reverse mortgage in any way you choose. You are in full control.
Often, reverse mortgage income cannot be taxed.
With a reverse mortgage, your other savings and investments for retirement can go further.
Unlike with a home equity line of credit (HELOC), a reverse mortgage doesn’t need to be paid off until a maturity event takes place. No monthly payments are required, and if you do not break the terms, it cannot be revoked, reduced, or frozen.

During your consultation, we can discuss your goals and whether a reverse mortgage will help you meet your financial objectives.

Do You Qualify for a Reverse Mortgage?

At least one of the borrowers must be age 62 or higher.
The home you are pulling equity from must be your primary residence.
