Buy a Home with a Reverse Mortgage!
Do you know anyone planning to:
- Downsize to a smaller home
- Move to a single-level home
- Move closer to family
A cash down payment, together with Reverse Mortgage proceeds, may be used to purchase a home. The reverse mortgage must be on the primary residence. This is a great opportunity for those who can't qualify for a traditional mortgage or want to retain part of the sale proceeds.
Paying Off a Reverse Mortgage
When the home is no longer the primary residence, or the loan is in default, payment is due: (a) In full, if heirs retain the property; or (b) If sold, the borrowers or the heirs retain any funds left after paying off the Reverse Mortgage; if sales proceeds are insufficient to pay the balance, FHA pays the shortfall.
