If you answered “Yes” to all these questions, then you may be able to qualify for a HECM Reverse Mortgage.

What Is A Reverse Mortgage?

A Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM), the most common type of Reverse Mortgage, is a special type of home loan for homeowners who are 62 and older. HECM is Federal Housing Administration’s (FHA) Reverse Mortgage program which enables you to withdraw some of the equity in your home. You choose how you want to withdraw your funds, whether in a fixed monthly amount or a line of credit or a combination of both.

Mortgage Disbursement Options:

1. Lump Sum Payment
2. Line of Credit
3. Fixed Monthly Payments
4. Combination of These Options

No matter how you choose to receive your funds, you will not be required to make a mortgage payment as long as you are living in the home.

What Should You Consider?

Reverse mortgages are a specialty loan category and may not be widely recognized or understood by a typical Loan Officer. It’s important to consult with a Reverse Mortgage Consultant like Saul who can guide you through the process with knowledge and care.
