Many homeowners have found that a reverse mortgage loan is a great way for them to take advantage of the equity they have built up in their homes.
A reverse mortgage loan is different than a traditional mortgage. With a traditional mortgage loan you make monthly mortgage payments, but with a reverse mortgage loan the lender pays you money through monthly installments, a one-time lump sum payment, a line of credit or a combination of a line of credit and monthly installments. The money that you receive is dependent on your age, the value of your home and the current interest rate.
One of the great advantages of a reverse mortgage loan is that you are not required to pay the loan back until the home is no longer your primary residence.
