There are no minimum income or credit requirements, but there are other requirements and homeowners should make sure that they qualify for the loan before they invest significant time or money into the process.

What Are The Benefits To A Reverse Mortgage? The key to a reverse mortgage is that there are no re-payments on it as long as you live in your home. Not only do you have some extra cash on hand, but you no longer have a mortgage payment.

The estate will be settled in the normal way, the property will be passed on to the heirs, and they can refinance out of the reverse mortgage. If they decide not to reside in the property, they can sell the unit, pay off the reverse mortgage, and keep the balance of the monies of the estate. They have one year, from the passing of the note holders, to settle the mortgage.

If the mortgagor fails to pay any of the installments or the interest, the whole remaining unpaid amount shall immediately due and payable at the option of the mortgagee or the lender.

The size of your loan will depend on your age, the kind of loan you want, the value of your home, and the current market interest rates.
