The Facts about Reverse Mortgages
- Reverse mortgage payments are not taxable, according to the IRS. This helps you receive the maximum amount of money you can get from the terms of your Reverse Mortgage.
- During the reverse mortgage, you retain title of your home. Retaining the title on your home is a vital piece of the puzzle that helps secure a comfortable retirement, even as you receive payments from the loan.
- You’ll be on the receiving end of payments on home equity—for once. Ever dream about having money coming in because you’re the one receiving payments? That’s what you’ll have with a reverse mortgage.
- You’ll borrow against the equity of your home. Remember that you need to be in a flexible situation in which you can borrow against the equity of your home in order for a Reverse Mortgage to have maximum value.
