Question: we are about to purchase a new home using a reverse mortgage for purchase. Would it be better to buy the home out right with a regular mortgage and then once in the home do a reverse mortgage? Does that free up more cash that way? as is stands now if we do a purchase with a RM we stand to get a ton of money to spend in upgrades or whatever. Just wondering if it's smarter to do it once you're in the home. or is it sixes. We have read a ton on this and asked so many questions but I feel like we will never know enough to take the plunge. Thanks for any reply. Steve

Hi Steve! I would say it’s generally better to do the reverse mortgage for purchase. This way, you are not having to pay 2 sets of closing costs and going through 2 separate transactions. There isn’t really any tangible benefit in waiting until after to do the reverse. I hope that helps!

Since this is a loan, would it be correct to say that the proceeds are not considered income when on social security?
@reversemortgageeducation2 ай бұрын
The proceeds are generally not considered to be income. However, for anyone who is trying to qualify for any means based programs, the proceeds may affect that. Hope that helps.

Can I keep my current mortgage and get a reverse mortgage ?
@reversemortgageeducation2 ай бұрын
For the federally insured reverse mortgage, you would not be able to. However, there are other types of reverse mortgages called proprietary/private reverse mortgages and there is one of those that would allow you to keep your 1st mortgage under certain circumstances.

Hi Taryn, I am in desperate situation and wanting to get your advice on 3 of my properties that would need reverse mortgages. I am listening to your videos and you just brought to my attention you can only have one reverse mortgage. So I have 3 properties that I want to reverse the mortgages does this mean I could roll over all 3 properties on one loan.
@reversemortgageeducation5 ай бұрын
Hi there! Unfortunately, you’d only be able to do one reverse mortgage on your primary residence. The home you reside in. That is the only property that would be eligible for a reverse mortgage.

Hello. Just found your channel and I have a question. My wife and her brother share ownership of the house we live in. He doesn't live here and we want to use a reverse mortgage to help pay what is needed to buy his share and take ownership of the house. I talked to a reverse mortgage guy who told be he could increase my payout if I did something called a buyout agreement. This was a quick consult over the phone and I wasn't quite clear on all the details. Have you heard of this and is it something I should consider? Thank you so much for your time.
@reversemortgageeducation5 ай бұрын
Hi there! The “buyout agreement” would be to get around the FHAs limitation on first year proceeds. So this may be smart to consider if you need more than what the loan would allow, year one. But, if your wife’s brother wouldn’t mind taking one payment at closing and a second and final payment one year later, then maybe the buyout agreement wouldn’t be necessary. Hope that helps!

Other than reading through my Lender's guidelines. What do you feel is the best way to better educate myself on this product? Are there courses offered specific to MLO's on this product? Just curious. Great videos and thanks for your time.

Hi there! Many lenders also have training material for you to learn. Videos, live training, etc. If you are able, get partnered up with the big Reverse Mortgage Lenders (Longbridge Financial, Finance of America Reverse) wholesale channels and they will have training through there. If you are unable to do that, I would recommend finding someone at your company with experience and asking them to possibly mentor you. I hope that helps!

@reversemortgageeducation8 ай бұрын
Hi! Great question. A reverse mortgage will remain until the last remaining borrower leaves the home permanently. Which, would be for the rest of that persons life if they want it. There is no term and no expiration, even if there is no longer any equity. I hope that helps.

So you can't rent the home and rent something else to live in? How do they know? Do they check periodically? and how do they check?
@reversemortgageeducation8 ай бұрын
Correct. You cannot rent out the whole property and live elsewhere. The home must be your primary residence. However, you can rent out a portion of the home, just not a majority of it. The way lenders make sure you are still residing in the home is by sending out a yearly occupancy certificate in the mail. They require you sign and send that back every year. Hope that helps! :-)

@reversemortgageeducation10 ай бұрын
Hi there! The interest rate cap is not the same for every loan. It is simply 5% on top of whatever your initial interest rate starts out at. The rates mentioned in the video were meant as examples to help you understand how it works. Not give definitive numbers on what your cap would be. Hope that helps!

Can I still qualify for a reverse mortgage at 61 years old . I have a medical condition which permits me from doing my job anymore and I can't wait for disability to kick in because Im in fear of getting behind on my house payments and losing my home?
@reversemortgageeducation10 ай бұрын
Hi there! There are, what are called, Proprietary or Private Reverse Mortgages. These are not federally insured, but instead, are offered and backed by the lender themselves. These loans are generally geared towards higher valued homes and you will sometimes hear them referred to as Jumbo Reverse Mortgages. Depending on your state and circumstances, you can be as young as 55 for these. But, unfortunately, for the federally insured reverse mortgages, you must be 62 at the time of closing. Although you may begin the process up to 90 days prior to your 62 birthday. If you'd like to see if the proprietary option may work or have any more in depth questions, feel free to give us a call anytime. (888) 982-0475.

We are just getting started, learning a great deal from your videos, perhaps about 50+% done at this point. We may do a reverse mortgage, or may sell our house and downsize; this remains to be seen. Even though not dealing with the technical nuts and bolts, in my opinion this video addresses one of the most important concepts of all. Assuming we identify an experienced and competent broker, the advantage of working with one individual (or perhaps a small, cohesive team), is overwhelming. We've all had experiences with "call centers" for computer support, cell phone plans, cable TV, internet, etc., etc. Ask yourself, "How satisfying are these encounters?" In my experience, I have had root canals that pale in comparison to the agony of dealing with call centers. They ALWAYS tell you they are taking notes and saving all the relevant information in your on-line file. Except there is NO RAPPORT established, and even their best intentions (rarely executed adequately) leave out dozens of details that inevitably come into play during the NEXT encounter. And once again, the Inexperienced on-call employee methodically trudges through their scripts and algorithms. (My blood pressure goes up just thinking about it.) Our very experienced ("Top 1%") real estate agent was the first to admit that reverse mortgages are beyond his expertise. (He often deals with the other end of the process, helping families work through the disposition of a property when a parent has moved into assisted living or passed away.) However, he has longstanding relationships with traditional mortgage brokers, and we asked him to ask them for THEIR recommendations. They take his request seriously, and this has led us to a respected local RM broker. The relationship is in its infancy, but this video gives me confidence that we are on the right path. Two thumbs up!

what if after signing loan time goes by ,say 6 months and Stuck living in continual nurse home facility, for rest of life, and they only borrowed 40% of value & only placed 16% in LESA
@reversemortgageeducation11 ай бұрын
Hi there. The borrower will have up to 1 year, if they need to go into a facility for physical or mental needs, before the lender can call the loan due. At that time, whatever is owed on the loan, will need to be repaid. And whatever equity is left, will remain the borrowers. The amount owed is only funds that have been used. So, if any money is left in a line of credit and any money left in the LESA, would not be part of the repayment as it was not used yet. I hope that makes sense.

My mothers husband took out a reverse mortgage. He died and I had to move my mother in with me. What options are there to do. Can we still sell the house even though she is not dead
@reversemortgageeducation11 ай бұрын
Yes, you absolutely can still sell the home. There is never any prepayment penalties for reverse mortgages. So, if she is either a borrower on the loan or she is the heir to the property, she should be able to sell the property at any time, repay the reverse mortgage, and keep whatever equity was still left in the home.

Thank you so much for taking the time to make these very well done videos with such great information, you present it so well in a manner that anyone can understand. Totally demystified, so grateful. Just one question: what happens when you use up all the loan but are still living in the home (live too long!)? Do you have to move out? Does the loan become due? Seriously considering this for my in-laws who are retiring this year. Are you licensed in California? Residing in Los Angeles. Thanks again!
@reversemortgageeducation11 ай бұрын
Hi there! Thank you for that feedback! I am so happy you have found our videos helpful. To answer your question, no, they do not have to move out and the loan does not become due. If the money runs out, then that is all that happens. The borrowers still are able to stay in the home until they choose not to or pass away. They simply will just have no more money to pull from unless they refinance. More than happy to discuss things further with you at any time. We are licensed in CA. :-)
