Reverse Mortgages for Owner Occupied Single Family Residences

If you are over 62 years old, own your home and have accessible equity to use, you can get a Reverse Home Mortgage. The older you are, the more cash you can get.

A Reverse Mortgage is a Loan Program that allows you to use the Equity in your home to pay your Mortgage Payments. For the most part my investors only offer Reverse Mortgages for California Property.

You may be able to receive cash in addition to the other benefits. The Primary Reverse Mortgage is an FHA/HUD backed loan. That is to say that you are guaranteed to receive the Loan Payment Program you selected.

This Reverse Mortgage loan is for people with limited income that want to stay in their home, payment free, until they pass away. However, you can take out a Reverse Home Mortgage Loan, and still be free to sell your home at any time.

The Reverse Mortgage is a fabulous program for Senior Citizens.

Typically, a reverse mortgage allows homeowners 62 and older to receive either
monthly payments or one lump sum from the property's equity without having to sell the property or make monthly repayments. The reverse mortgages also don't have to be repaid for as long as residents do not move, but they must be repaid in full, including all interest and other charges, when the last living  borrower dies, sells the home or permanently moves away.

The borrowers continue to own their homes and are responsible for property taxes, insurance and repairs.

 

Can you get a reverse mortgage on a commercial building?

 

 

The answer is no.  It has to be a personal residence, one to four units or a manufactured home.
