What Is a Reverse Mortgage?
A Reverse Mortgage is a government-insured loan (commonly an FHA Home Equity Conversion Mortgage, or HECM) that allows qualified homeowners to access a portion of their home’s equity without monthly mortgage payments. Instead of making payments to a lender, the loan balance grows over time and is repaid when the borrower sells the home, moves, or passes away.
Reverse Mortgages can provide:
• Supplemental retirement income
• Funds for healthcare or home improvements
• Flexible payout options including lump sum, monthly payments, or line of credit
Benefits of a Reverse Mortgage

Borrowers can convert a portion of their home equity into cash without selling their home.
No Monthly Mortgage Payments

Flexible Disbursement Options

Government-Insured
Most reverse mortgages are FHA-insured, providing safety and regulated protections for borrowers.
Stay in Your Home
You maintain ownership and can continue living in your home as long as you meet the loan obligations.
Reverse Mortgage Requirements
To qualify for a Reverse Mortgage:
• Homeowner must be 62 years or older
• Must have sufficient home equity
• Home must be primary residence
• Borrowers must continue to pay property taxes, homeowners insurance, and maintain the home
• Completion of counseling with a HUD-approved reverse mortgage counselor
The Harris Team guides you through eligibility requirements and ensures you understand the financial implications of a Reverse Mortgage.
Costs and Considerations
Reverse Mortgages involve certain fees and interest:
• Origination fees
• Closing costs
• Mortgage insurance premiums (for FHA HECM loans)
• Interest accrues on the loan balance over time
Because the loan balance increases over time, it is important to carefully evaluate longterm financial goals. Our team helps you assess whether a Reverse Mortgage is the right fit for your retirement planning.

• Are 62 or older
