Reverse Mortgage Alternatives

Alternatives to Reverse Mortgages

The reverse mortgage should not be considered a "first choice" for older adults looking for extra cash. There are alternatives. It does have its advantages, but in some cases, the reverse mortgage fees outway the benefits. Below are some reverse mortgage alternatives to consider before gettting this type of loan.

Reverse Mortgage Alternatives

  • Downsizing - Selling the home and moving into smaller quarters
  • The Home Equity Loan or Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)
  • Refinancing the home completely
  • Having the children buy the home, and lease back to you
  • Securing money for home repairs from other sources

Larry Truly Cares About Those He Helps From our first meeting we felt at ease. Larry is definitely knowledgeable with the reverse mortgage and he helped us to understand what went on with each step of the process. He was patient, a good listener, and took his time to explain issues in a way we understood. In the end we felt confident we had made the right decision and had chosen the right person to guide us. Larry truly cares about those he helps. We so appreciate his looking out for us. Thank you, Larry.
