      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. Please feel free to give me a call to discuss further. (888) 982-0475.

    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.

    • @reversemortgageeducation

    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.

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 3 місяці тому

      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!

      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!

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 6 місяців тому

      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?

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 6 місяців тому

      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! :-)

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 7 місяців тому

      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!

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 8 місяців тому

      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.

  • @EdGallaher-d2e
    @EdGallaher-d2e 8 місяців тому

    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!

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 9 місяців тому

      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.

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 9 місяців тому

      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!

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 9 місяців тому

      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. :-)

    What is the best age for a couple to best maximize reasonable value in a reverse mortgage? Can it remain the primary residence for say my wife if I require care elsewhere, say an assistance living home?

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 10 місяців тому

      Hi Patrick! I don’t necessarily believe there is a “best age”. With the understanding that as you get older, you do qualify for more, the most you can ever get out of a reverse mortgage is around age 92. But most folks aren’t going to wait that long. My recommendation is usually to wait until it accomplishes your goals, whatever those may be. As well, the reverse mortgage, for many, is not a one and done situation. You can refinance once a year, if beneficial for you. And yes, the home would still remain your wife’s primary residence and the loan would remain if you had to go into an assisted living home. I hope that helps!😊

  • @esteeb42
    @esteeb42 10 місяців тому

    I'm not sure if it was the case at the time of this video but in California where I live, they require that you have a discussion with a professional as to what a reverse mortgage means before they will approve you for one. I am happy they do that as I'm sure it can provide answers to any questions I might have😊

      Yes, that is the case in all states and is certainly a good safeguard for those considering a reverse mortgage. :-)

    Really appreciating all these videos. My husband passed away October 2022. Because of my financial situation now, I am considering a reverse mortgage. My parents got one on their home years ago and it has enabled my mom to stay in the house I grew up in after Daddy passed.

    Can someone take over a reverse mortgage and pay down on the loan?

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 11 місяців тому

      Hi there. Unfortunately, no. Reverse mortgages are not assumable. Although, payments can be made towards the loan, if the borrower chooses. But borrowers cannot change. Hope that helps!

    Thank u, excellent! Liked subscribed and belled. What if I own my home outright free and clear - I would like to do some projects over the next few years, and would like to borrow 50 to 100K. I have good retirement funds, but I strongly prefer not to spend that down....I think, I'd rather have the loan, and use my funds to generate monthly interest income. Residing in California. Or is there similar loans that is a better fit; I only ask as the example for this video was a borrower who still owes on their mortgage?? 🧐 Oh, and my other concern: is the interest that accrues over the life of the loan excessive.

      Hi James! Glad you are enjoying the videos! If you own your home free and clear, this just means you would have more proceeds available through the reverse mortgage to do with what you want/need. If there is no mortgage to pay off, the homeowner simply gets access to those funds because they are not being paid out. As far as if there is a better product out there for you, that is something you can only determine once you investigate the reverse mortgage and all other potential options. A HELOC or a traditional cash out refinance would probably be the other options you have for what you are trying to accomplish. All three options, of course, have pros and cons. Here is a link to my videos I did on reverse vs helocs and reverse vs. cashout refis. HELOC: ua-cam.com/video/Fs-xz4jmnx0/v-deo.html Cash out Refi: ua-cam.com/video/65b57ljnEY8/v-deo.html Lastly, how much interest the reverse mortgage incurs over it's life, is extremely dependent on many factors. How you structure the loan initially, how much money you withdraw from the loan and when, how long you live or are in the reverse mortgage. The interest can certainly add up over time, and in my opinion, interest on all mortgages is excessive. :-) But understanding the compounding nature of the interest on a reverse mortgage and what you can do to mitigate that interest over time is key to helping you determine if it's something you would find acceptable. I would certainly recommend giving me a call and we can run through your particular scenarios and you can see a projection of interest over time, costs, benefits, etc. That way you'll be better able to decide if this may be a good fit or not.

    Are reverse mortgages and HECM's the same thing? They don't seem to be, to me, so far. If not, do you have a video comparing a HECM to a reverse mortgage?

    • @reversemortgageeducation
      @reversemortgageeducation 11 місяців тому

      Hi Brett. A HECM is a type of reverse mortgage. There are different types, but the HECM is by far the most common. It is the federally insured reverse mortgage. The other most common reverse mortgage is the Jumbo or Proprietary Reverse Mortgage. This is similar to the HECm except it is not federally insured and is more geared towards higher priced homes. Typically 1.5mil or above. Hope that helps!
