Common Uses

Live more comfortably with a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) loan. Its flexible repayment feature gives you more freedom in how you manage your monthly expenses, and you can use the funds as you choose. For example:

  •  Dramatically lower your monthly mortgage payments
  •  Consolidate auto loans and high-interest credit card debt, and reduce your bills
  •  Improve monthly cash flow
  •  Establish a standby line of credit you can tap into as needed
  •  Gain payment flexibility, for more financial control
  •  Fund large purchases like a new automobile
  •  Assist a grandchild headed off to college
  •  Fund major home renovation projects
  •  Buy a home that better suits you

Depending on your needs and plans, you have the choice of taking your funds as:

  •  A line of credit — which offers all the benefits of a traditional Home Equity Line of Credit, but with greater flexibility
  •  Monthly advances, either for a set period of time or as long as you live in your home
  •  A lump sum
  •  Or a combination of these options
  •  Plus, you can change how you receive your remaining funds at any time, if you need or want to

 With a HECM loan, commonly known as a reverse mortgage, no principal and interest payments are required until you move, pass away or sell the home, as long as you meet your loan obligations. (As with any home-secured loan, you must keep current with property-related taxes, insurance and maintenance for the loan to remain in good standing.) However, you can opt to pay down your principal and interest if and when you choose; no pre-payment penalties apply.

Job Well Done I would like to thank Larry McAnarney for a job well done in handling my grandmother’s reverse mortgage. Larry is very professional and knowledgeable of the entire process. If there was information that needed to be explained, confirmed or followed up on, Larry followed up with me in a timely manner. Recognizing that I am my grandmother’s POA, Larry was very patient as he walked me through the process on her behalf. I am at ease in knowing that as my grandmother continues to get older and deal with her various medical conditions, she will not have to worry about the finances. If you are considering a reverse mortgage for you or your loved one, I highly recommend Larry McAnarney. He will guide you through the process with ease.

Great Service, Larry Had My Back Larry McAnarney was not only thoroughly knowledgeable and professional, but he was also a kind and patient guide as I navigated the entire Reverse Mortgage process. He always answered all my questions, either via phone, text, or email, promptly. Every step of the way, I felt that Larry had my back. For example, he gave me excellent advice on what to expect during the appraisal and thorough information about the closing process. He also was very clear and concise when it came to explaining the whole structure of my Reverse Mortgage. Throughout the Reverse Mortgage process, I felt that I was dealing with someone of the highest honesty and integrity. I highly recommend Larry McAnarney to anyone seeking to obtain a Reverse Mortgage.

My Financial Advisor Recommended Larry My financial advisor recommended I contact Larry about reverse mortgage options. I live in a condominium so there were some extra hurdles Larry had to go through to get the association approved. He always stayed in touch with me and answered all my questions. I don’t know what I would have done without Larry and the Reverse Mortgage.
