Post subject: Aging Parent who has a reverse mortgage |
|
|
| My parent has a reverse mortgage. Her mobility is becoming very limited but not to the point of being put into a home. She does however desire to move to an apartment based on her income but with the house, she does not qualify. She would like to sell the house (and of course pay back the loan) but that would also considered funds which would cause her not to qualify. Can the house be put in my name, and the house be put on the market to sell (and repay loan)? That way, my mother will not show any assets from the house. |

| House can be put to your name through quit claim deed and once that is done you can easily sell the house. |

Hi Saundra,
Welcome to MortgageFit Forums.
I would like to know the problem that your mother is facing with the current mortgage. Since, she already has a reverse mortgage which needs not to be paid back during her lifetime, why is she thinking of getting rid of it?
As per the financial condition that you mentioned, I don't think it will be a wise decision for her to move out of the mortgage at this point of time.
If the financial condition improves somehow and other conditions satisfy, then she can make a change.
The house can't be transferred to you with the reverse mortgage due on it and the mortgage is not transferable to you.
She has to repay the loan first if she wants to change the title. You may talk to your lender for a suggestion. If you want my suggestion, then I would stress on continuing with the loan now.
God bless you.
For MortgageFit,

My grandmother currently has a reverse mortgage. My question is; who exactly are considered heirs? My grandmother has 3 surviving children, none of which would ever qualify to take over the loan in the event of her death. One is on disablility, one is on drugs and the other has no (if ever) employment abd basically does home health care. I would hate to she the government take her home which she owes less than 100,000 and resell it for a huge profit. As her grandaughter what can I do? _________________ Need help choosing the right loan? Get free consultation from community lenders/consultant |

Hi Tracy,
Welcome to the Forums.
In a reverse mortgage, the term 'heirs' indicate those who will inherit the property after your grandmother as stated in the will. What you can do is ask your grandmother to talk to the lender if he will allow her children to take over the responsibility of paying the mortgage.
Since the children are disabled, drug addict and unemployed, I guess the lender may not accept the proposal. In that case, if your grandmother can transfer her property title in your name, then after she dies you can take over the responsibility of the mortgage. But your grandmother needs to discuss this with her lender.
Thanks,
Caron. |

Hi,
I think you should sort it out with the lender. You may be allowed to pay the mortgage when your grandmother is no more. But I guess she's doing well, isn't it? So, don't worry, just talk to the lender and know about the process.
For more details on reverse mortgage, please read this section.
Thanks,
Jerry |

Hello.
The Reverse Mortgage is only payable when the last surviving borrower dies. The heirs can also pay back the reverse mortgage. |

Post subject: how to pay back reverse mortgage after last parent dies |
|

| Both my parents just died. they had a reverse mortgage for 5 yrs. There are 6 adult heirs. Must the money be repaid in a lump sum, or can we pay back monthly? We don't want to loose the house, nor can anyone afford a mortgage to repay this? |
