One client in Central Kentucky had to wait until his half birthday to get a reverse mortgage. The first time we talked he was short to close by $10,000. That means he would have to bring $10,000 to the closing. See the numbers are all based on your date of birth, interest rates, and value of your home. With the date of birth they base it on what age you are closest to. So if you are 65.5, you are counted as being 66. We waited until his half birthday and interest rates dropped a bit and we closed the loan. We eliminated the mortgage payment and improved their financial situation. They don't have to worry about ever making a mortgage payment again.

Kentucky Reverse Mortgage

2008-05-22T14:37:00.000-04:00

When I contacted one of my Kentucky mortgage clients he was concerned about his adjustable rate mortgage going up. He was self employed and did not have enough income on his tax return to qualify for a regular mortgage. He had been told by other lenders that with the mortgage mess all underwriters now require proof of income. They wanted to see his last two years of tax returns. Since he was 62 years old I told him about options available with a reverse mortgage. I would not need proof of income since he would never be required to make a payment. The reverse is based on date of birth, value of your home, and interest rates. The reverse was perfect for his situation. We paid off a high interest rate loan and gave him peace of mind. Now he can continue to be self employed without worrying about money.

Columbus Ohio Reverse Mortgage

2008-05-21T14:32:00.004-04:00

One example of a reverse mortgage I personally handled was a couple near Columbus Ohio. He planned on retiring soon and they wanted to reduce expenses. They had a small first mortgage and wanted some cash to replace the garage. They didn't want to have the additional expense of a payment. After researching the options available the couple decided on a reverse. I structured the reverse to payoff the existing mortgage, give them $15,000 cash after the closing, and leave $40,000 available on their line of credit. Now remember they won't have a mortgage payment and can live in the house as long as they like. When they both have moved out of the property or passed away all of the remaining equity goes to their heirs. As with all my clients in Ohio, Indiana, or Kentucky I can drive to meet with you face to face.

The home is always yours. Just like now, if you have a mortgage the house is yours. The bank has a lien on the house that must be paid off when you sell it. If the house is passed on to your heirs it is also the same. Your heirs have six to twelve months to decide what they want to do. They can put it on the market and sell, buy it themselves, or get a loan and pay off the reverse mortgage. The amount you owe is calculated the same way as if you had a regular mortgage.

If you move out for a year or no longer reside in the house the loan will need to be paid off.
