Reverse Mortgage Alternatives

Alternatives to Reverse Mortgages

The reverse mortgage should not be considered a "first choice" for older adults looking for extra cash. There are alternatives. It does have its advantages, but in some cases, the reverse mortgage fees outway the benefits. Below are some reverse mortgage alternatives to consider before gettting this type of loan.

Reverse Mortgage Alternatives

Downsizing - Selling the home and moving into smaller quarters
The Home Equity Loan or Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)
Refinancing the home completely
Having the children buy the home, and lease back to you
Securing money for home repairs from other sources
