In a reverse mortgage loan (sometimes called a home equity conversion loan), borrowers of a certain age may use home equity for anything they need without having to sell their homes. The lender pays out money based on the equity you've built-up in your home; you get a one-time amount, a payment every month or a line of credit. Paying back your loan isn't required until when the homeowner puts his home up for sale, moves (such as into a care facility) or dies. You or representative of your estate has to repay the reverse mortgage amount, interest , and finance charges at the time your home is sold, or you no longer live in it.
The requirements of a reverse mortgage loan usually are being sixty-two or older, using the home as your primary residence, and having a low remaining mortgage balance or having paid it off.
Reverse mortgages can be helpful for retired homeowners or those who are no longer working and have a need to add to their limited income. Rates of interest can be fixed or adjustable while the money is nontaxable and does not interfere with Social Security or Medicare benefits. The residence can never be at risk of being taken away from you by the lending institution or put up for sale against your will if you live past your loan term - even if the property value creeps under the loan balance.
