REVERSE MORTGAGES

Reverse mortgages are loans that are marketed to senior citizens, and are used to release the home equity in the property as one lump sum or multiple payments. The homeowner’s obligation to repay the loan is deferred until the owner dies, sells the home, or leaves the property (i.e., goes to senior care facility). Also called home equity conversion mortgages (HECM), reverse mortgages are often FHA backed and are based on accrued home equity.
