Financial & Emotional Pain

According to the Joint Center For Housing Studies and the Federal Reserve, there are over 23,000,000 older homeowners in the US with over 31 percent reporting “major financial stress.”  Just like them, you may be facing severe cost burdens directly jeopardizing your ability to remain financially independent in your home and have access to cash when needed. 

 

“It saddens me to know someone is in financial pain right now when a solution is readily available…”   Alain Valles 

 

A Solution

A reverse mortgage gives qualified borrowers the option to receive cash as a lump sum, a monthly check, or a line of credit with NO minimum required monthly mortgage payments.  The homeowner is, of course, required to pay ongoing real estate taxes, insurance and meet other loan guidelines.

 

The Mystery

Of the millions of people eligible for a government insured reverse mortgage, less than 2% have taken advantage of this loan program.  The question is why?

 

The Answer

According to the Brookings Institution report, the word “reverse,” conjures images of retreat and defeat.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  Taking proactive measures to understand your options always leads to a better quality of life.    

 

“Not everyone should get a reverse mortgage, but everyone should know how one works…”  Alain Valles
