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.

We Were Fortunate to Work with Larry We were fortunate to work with Larry McAnarney and to have his experience which we appreciated. We rate his help and knowledge making our application and signing a top rating. If that is a 5-star and the highest rating, we submit that.

Thank You, Larry! Larry McAnarney is our reverse mortgage loan specialist. He did an excellent job of explaining the reverse mortgage programs, the process, requirements, how the monies would be accessed if approved. He followed up with me multiple times before I made the decision to proceed which I really appreciated. He assisted me in wading through all of the requirements in the application process. He was always available for a question either by email or phone. He was always encouraging and optimistic about our chances for success. He was helpful and very clear as to all the documents I needed to prepare and always allowed me a reasonable amount of time to comply. As our house is in trust there were further "hoops to jump through." Larry truly went above and beyond the call of duty on our behalf with the underwriters. I have no doubt that his extra hard work won the approval of our reverse mortgage. I couldn't recommend him more highly. He has my thanks!

A True Advocate I just completed the Reverse Mortgage Process with Larry McAnarney. Throughout this process, Larry kept me informed, answered my questions promptly and conducted himself with the highest degree of integrity. It means so much to me to have a true advocate throughout this process; a truly important transaction for me. I would highly recommend Larry to anyone securing a reverse mortgage.
