Reverse mortgages allow senior citizens to tap into their homes
equity without selling their home. The lender pays you money based
on the equity you have in your home. You can receive a lump sum,
a monthly payment or a line of credit.
Repayment is not due until the borrower sells the property, moves
into a retirement community or passes away. When you sell your
home or no longer use it as your primary residence, you or your
estate must repay the cash you received from the reverse mortgage
plus interest and other finance charges to the lender.
Reverse mortgages require you to be
at least 62 years of age, have a low (usually 65% or less) or
even a zero balance owed against your home and maintain the property
as your principal residence.
Interest rates can be fixed or adjustable
and the money is nontaxable. It
does not interfere with Social Security or Medicare benefits. Additionally,
the lender cannot take property away if you outlive your loan,
nor can you be forced to sell your home to pay off your loan even
if the loan balance grows to exceed property value.

who need additional income who do not want to or cannot go back
