How
much money can I get?
This
depends on your age, the home's value, the amount of equity,
and
interest rates at the time of origination. Other factors include the
reverse mortgage product and the particular
payment option selected. |
Do I need a
minimum income level or credit rating to quality?
No.
Qualification is based o your age, home value, location and the equity held in
your primary residence not your income or credit. |
Am
I spending my children's inheritance?
No.
Your heirs are
entitled to any appreciation the property accrues.
Additionally, a reverse mortgage offers the
freedom to assist your
children financially today and avoid the
potential of burdening them
with your expenses. |
Are there
any monthly payments?
No. You're
only responsible for paying your property taxes, insurance and maintaining
your home. |
What
will a reverse mortgage cost me?
You
may be able to obtain a reverse mortgage with minimal out-of-pocket
costs. While closing costs vary based upon the
type and size of the loan,
you can structure your loan with these costs included
in the loan amount. |
How do I
receive the proceeds?
The
proceeds of your loan can be taken as a lump-sum payment, monthly income,
a line of credit you can draw
upon, or any combination of the three. |
