Will a reverse mortgage affect my government benefits?

The funds from a reverse mortgage generally do not affect regular Social Security or Medicare benefits. However, needs-based benefits, such as Medicaid and Supplemental Security Income (SSI), may be impacted. I can provide additional general information, but you should contact a financial professional or government benefits specialist about your particular situation.

Very Happy With My Decision My experience with Larry was just wonderful. He was available for all my questions and had all the answers, I am very happy with both my decision to obtain a reverse mortgage and that Larry was the representative I chose to work with. If anyone would ask me about a reverse mortgage I would not hesitate to give them Larry's name.

Methodical & Patient Larry was very methodical and patient with us as we learned about reverse mortgages. Most seniors my age do need an additional moment, or so, to process and adopt a new way of looking at the equity in your home.
