If you are at least age 62 and are looking to supplement your income, a reverse
mortgage could be your answer. Here is what you need to know in order to
decide if a reverse mortgage is the right choice.
Reverse mortgages are an often misunderstood method of borrowing against equity
in your home. Think of this type of loan as a regular mortgage turned upside
down; instead of you paying the lender every month, the mortgage lender pays
you.
Because the mortgage lender makes payments to you each month, the equity you own
in your home shrinks. Reverse mortgages are an effective way to spend down
equity in your home. The balance of the reverse mortgage becomes due to the
lender when you move, sell the property, or die. When one of these events
occurs your family can pay back the loan, or the lender will sell the property
to pay off the loan.
The eligibility requirements for a reverse mortgage are simply that you are 62
years of age or older, and that your home is your primary residence. You can
even use the reverse mortgage to pay off your existing mortgage to increase
your monthly cash flow. The amount you will receive depends on a number of
factors including your homes value, the amount of equity you own, and the
interest rates and closing costs charged by the lender. Reverse mortgages can
be disbursed as a lump sum, fixed monthly payments, or an equity line of
credit.
