Reverse Mortgages
Reverse Mortgages are now monitored by the Housing and
Urban Development Agency of the federal government and are
most commonly referred to as a HECM (Home Equity Conversion
Mortgage).
A HECM enables you to benefit from the equity you have
established in your home and use it for whatever you wish
with no repayment obligations for as long as you live in
the house.
The HECM
- Provides access to dormant equity.
- Does not change ownership of property.
- Reduces your taxable estate.
- Does not negatively impact other assets.
- Does not negatively impact your retirement
income.
- Does not create monthly payment burden.
- Does not obligate heirs.
The HECM proceeds can be used for:
- Grandchild’s Education
- Pay off existing mortgage
- Home Repairs / Maintenance
- Home Health Care
- Pay off credit cards
- Car Repair or purchase of new one
- Taxes
- Travel
- Or for whatever else you want...
