How does a reverse mortgage work?
A reverse mortgage provides additional cash for homeowners age 62 and up, either as a line of credit, monthly income payment, or as a lump sum. The amount homeowners receive is based on their age and the value of the home. It is a special kind of loan for seniors that allows them to borrow against their home without making a house payment for as long as they own and live in the home. The homeowner is responsible for their own property taxes, homeowners insurance and property maintenance.
FSI Mortgage provides the Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM), a reverse mortgage program insured by the US Federal Housing Administration (FHA). This type of reverse mortgage is safe and dependable. You can stay in your home as long as you like and you are insured that you and your heirs never owe more than your home is worth. Remember, you are responsible for payment of your property taxes, homeowners insurance and property maintenance in order to take advantage of this program.
The growing popularity of the reverse mortgage program is evidence of its benefits in a wide variety of financial circumstances. Why struggle in your golden years when you can significantly and safely increase your resources with a reverse mortgage?
