Can I refinance my existing mortgage, home equity loan, or other debts with a reverse mortgage?

Yes. For many homeowners age 62 and older who are looking to refinance their mortgage(s) or consolidate debt to reduce their monthly bills, a reverse mortgage can be a more suitable solution. That's because a reverse mortgage has a flexible repayment feature, which puts you in control of how much you pay towards principal and interest each month. For as long as you live in the home, you can choose to pay as much as little as you like, or make no monthly loan payment at all — freeing up money for other purposes.

As the homeowner, you'll still have to pay property taxes and insurance, and keep the home in good shape.

Professional-Patient-Flexible-Thoroughly Knowledgeable Our financial planner suggested we look into a reverse mortgage to free up extra assets to help us use them for vacations, anticipated and unanticipated expenes,while protecting current cash flow. Additionally, having a line of credit provides peace of mind that we will have the cash available to meet whatever the future holds. Larry provided the answers to our questions and pointed out the way the process works in a way we could understand and the pros and cons of the choices available relative to the costs associated with each choice, no hidden fees, and a clear understanding of our obligations. Larry helped us to consider family issues that might arise so we could determine what our goals are upon our passing for our children. He is professional, patient, flexible, and most of all thoroughly knowledgeable.

Elderly Family Member We worked with Larry McAnarney to secure a reverse mortgage for an elderly family member. From beginning to end of this rather complicated process, Larry was extremely efficient, helpful, and knowledgeable. He shared with us all of the elements of this type of mortgage arrangement, explained clearly how it would work, and advised us of possible misunderstandings. When we had questions (as we did on multiple occasions), he answered them promptly and efficiently, both by email and telephone. He also followed up quickly to clarify some final issues and questions that arose as the closing approached and even after it had been completed. His manner was always professional and well informed. I would strongly recommend working with Larry in any matter related to mortgage financing or refinancing, especially so in regard to making a wise decision about a reverse mortgage.
