What is a reverse mortgage?
A reverse mortgage is a loan against your home that you do not have to pay back for as long as you live in the home. You have several choices about how you receive the cash from the loan, and you still own your home throughout the entire term of the loan.
A reverse mortgage can help turn the value of your home into cash without having to make monthly mortgage payments and can help you better manage your financial future.
Let your home take care of you
Reverse mortgage can be a great way for qualified homeowners who are 62 years of age or older to access the equity in their home. It can provide you with the means to supplement your monthly income, cover healthcare costs, pay off existing mortgages or other financial obligations, fix up your home, or simply gain peace of mind. Whatever your specific goals a reverse mortgage can go a long way towards helping you maintain your financial independence.
