Can a Reverse Mortgage Help Me?

Considering a Reverse Mortgage?

Reverse mortgages enable eligible homeowners to access the money they have built up as equity in their homes. They are primarily designed to strengthen seniors’ personal and financial independence by providing funds without a monthly payment burden during their lifetime in the home. The major eligibility requirements are that the applicant must be at least 62 years of age and own and occupy a home whose mortgage has been paid in full or with a very low mortgage balance remaining.

The Benefits of a Reverse Mortgage include:

Tax-free funds for as long as you live in your home.
No loan repayment for as long as you live in your home.
No income, medical or credit requirements
Retain ownership of your home for life; this is guaranteed as long as you maintain your home, and pay insurance and real estate taxes.
Choose a cash flow plan tailored to your needs.
No restrictions on how you may use the funds.
A tax-advantaged way to pass on part of your estate today.


There is much information about reverse mortgages which can be obtained via the internet, and through your financial, legal and tax advisors.
Most important is that you understand what it entails and how it may benefit you.

On a personal note: My mother did a reverse mortgage - it was the best thing she could have done. She now has money to pay all her bills each month, was able to purchase a new vehicle (first one in 40 years), has been able to travel and enjoy life. Without it she would not have been able to keep her house. If you know of seniors who might be in the same situation, have them check out the details, it could make a big difference in their lives.
