Reverse Mortgages
What is a reverse mortgage?
• A loan that allows homeowners age 62+ to
tap into their home equity; never have to
make payments on the loan; while still
living in and owning the home. There are
no restrictions on the use of the proceeds
from the loan. No ratios, no credit scores,
no income requirements.
