Post     Post subject: another reverse mortgage

I own two homes. I took out a reverse mortgage on my primary residence a few years ago. Now I want to sell that house. After I do, I will move into my second house. Will I then be able to take out a reverse mortgage on that home?

Hi,

You can sell your current primary residence. But you'll have to pay off the reverse mortgage with the sale proceed. You will be able to take reverse mortgage on your second home, provided you use it as your principal place of residence.

>>since we paid off the debt, are me and my husband entitled to have the deed in our name?

No. The property will be provided to the heirs as per your Parents Will or Living Trust.

Post     Post subject: Selling our condo with a reverse mortgage

We have a condo with a reverse mortgage and a second vacation home. We are considering moving to the vacation home and we understand that we will need to sell the condo per the reverse mortgage rules. Since the real estate market for our condo has dropped, what happens if we do not get enough to pay off the mortgage.

It's a non-recourse mortgage, so you're not responsible for any loss. If the condo is worth $200k and you owe $300k, you're not responsible for the $100k loss. The lender will file a claim against the insurance to recover the difference.

The insurance premium is the only thing that enables a HUD sponsored Reverse Mortgage to work. People complain about the high fees to enter into a Reverse Mortgage, but the highest fee is usually the insurance premium - but it sure comes in handy when it's time to use.

After you move into your vacation home, you can get a Reverse Mortgage on it too.

I'd like to know the answer to that too. If she was on Title when they got the Reverse Mortgage, she's not being forced to move because of the Reverse Mortgage. Why did they say she has to move?

if you transfer ownership to her now, you'll activate the due on sale clause, and you'll have to repay the reverse mortgage in full immediately. it may be better to prepare a will and name your daughter as beneficiary. check with an estate attorney about this, though.

The best thing to do is provide her Title via your Living Trust.

Hi Nicole,

You should inform the lender about the death of co-signer of the loan and stop the reverse mortgage. You can apply for a refinance of the loan in order to save the property from foreclosure. You will get around 3 months time to refinance the reverse mortgage.

Post     Post subject: Can areverse mortgage buy you time while you sell your house

My mother's house is on the market and not selling as quickly as she needs it to. She has some debt that needs to be paid off and can no longer afford the high taxes. However, she doesn't want to give the house away for a song as it's in a highly valued area.
Is a reverse mortgage a good option to buy her some more time so that she can get a good price for her house?
Also, is there a company that you recommend for seniors?
Thanks
