What is a reverse mortgage?

A reverse mortgage is a home-secured loan that’s exclusively for homeowners and homebuyers age 62 and older. It allows borrowers to convert some of the equity in their home into income-tax-free funds. (Not tax advice, consult a tax professional.) There are different loan products to choose from that offer you options on what interest rate you are charged, how much money you can access, and how you receive your payments. Unlike a regular “forward” mortgage or traditional home equity loan or home equity line of credit, there are no monthly principal and interest payments as long as at least one of the borrowers lives in the home as their primary residence. As with any mortgage, in order for the loan to remain in good standing, the borrower must also keep up with property-related taxes, insurance and upkeep.

Exceptionally Helpful Larry McAnarney was exceptionally helpful throughout the entire process. I was fully prepared for the closing, which went smoothly in no small part because Larry had educated me and kept me informed. I would not hesitate to recommend Larry to anyone who is considering a reverse mortgage

Reverse Mortgage Made Easy! From the start, Larry McAnarney was supportive, helpful, patient and explained everything in a way I could understand. He was always responsive to my calls and emails, and made sure that the process stayed on track. It was a real pleasure doing business with Larry, and I recommend him highly -- especially for taking the mysteries out of what could be a confusing and complex process, and just putting your mind at ease.
