What is a Reverse Mortgage?

A Reverse Mortgage, or Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM), is a loan that allows borrowers age 62 and older to purchase a new home, or access their equity in their existing home, while having the option of not making monthly mortgage payments.

Why would I get a Reverse Mortgage?

The major benefit of a reverse home mortgage is the ability to buy a home or access cash without having to make a monthly payment, alleviating borrowers’ financial burden. They are used for many purposes, including:

  • Creating additional income or a financial safety net of available funds
  • Financial planning to delay drawing Social Security
  • Downsizing or Upsizing
  • Relocations to be closer to family members or medical facilities
  • Purchasing a second home or rental property
  • Gifting funds to family members
  • Rescuing family members in financial distress

How is a Reverse Mortgage Repaid?

Instead of making monthly payments as you would in a traditional mortgage, a reverse mortgage is paid in one lump sum at the end of the loan. This typically occurs:

  • When the loan term ends
  • When the borrow is deceased
  • If the borrower no longer lives in the property as their primary residence
  • If the borrower does not uphold the terms of the loan (adequately maintaining the property and paying taxes and insurance)

Most often, the reverse mortgage is repaid by selling the property and using the proceeds to pay off the loan.

*Reverse mortgages are loans offered to homeowners who are 62 or older who have equity in their homes. The loan programs allow borrowers to defer payment on the loans until they pass away, sell the home, or move out. Homeowners, however, remain responsible for the payment of taxes, insurance, maintenance, and other items. Nonpayment of these items can lead to a default under the loan terms and ultimate loss of the home. FHA insured reverse mortgages have an upfront and ongoing cost; ask your loan officer for details.
