> Schedule Your Free Consultation <
Most but not all reverse mortgage loans are Home Equity Conversion Mortgages, the only reverse mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration. This webpage refers only to HECM loans.
Eliminate Monthly Mortgage Payments
You still must pay property-related taxes, insurance and upkeep expenses.
Access Equity as Cash
Access a portion of your home’s equity without incurring income tax.†
You Own Your Home
You remain on title and own your home so long as you meet the loan obligations
Free up cash flow in retirement.
Retirement shouldn’t be about worrying about how to close retirement income gaps.
It should be about enjoying your life to the fullest.
Good news: You may be eligible for an FHA-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM, reverse mortgage) loan.
It’s exclusively for homeowners 62 and older.
Articles About Reverse Mortgage Loans and Freeing Up Cash Flow
As a HECM borrower, you can:
- Access a percentage of your built-up housing wealth as cash, fixed monthly advances or a line of credit.
- Use HECM loan proceeds at closing to refinance (pay off) your payment-required traditional mortgage.
- Pay as much or as little toward the loan balance each month as you want, or you can defer repayment by not making any monthly principal and interest payments for as long as you live in your home. You just have to maintain the home and pay the property charges, like taxes and insurance.
Plus, you can use any remaining HECM loan proceeds as you wish, such as to:
- Pay for aging-in-place renovations
- Pay off high interest credit cards
- Pay for a large purchase, like a new car
- Pay for in-home care
- Establish a rainy day fund
In today's inflationary new world, having a $0 monthly mortgage payment can help you navigate:
- Rising gas prices
- A bear market
- Rising food prices
- Rising taxes
- Unexpected health care costs
...And it can help you to enjoy a better retirement, like finally being able to take that vacation with the grandkids.
Remember, home values in many areas across the country are still at or near historic highs. That's wonderful news for you as a homeowner, especially if you're looking to put your housing wealth to work.
