What is a Reverse Mortgage?

A Reverse Mortgage allows homeowners aged 62 and older to access the equity in their home while continuing to live in their property. Homeowners in Eugene, Springfield, Portland, Newport, and Brookings can use these funds to supplement retirement income, pay off debts, cover medical expenses, or make home improvements.

How Reverse Mortgages Work

Reverse Mortgages convert a portion of a home’s equity into cash, which can be received as a lump sum, monthly payments, or a line of credit. Homeowners in Eugene, Springfield, Portland, Newport, and Brookings can choose the method that best suits their financial needs. Repayment is generally deferred until the homeowner sells, moves, or passes away. Dale explains interest accrual, loan repayment rules, and how the loan impacts equity and inheritance, providing clarity for homeowners and their families.

To qualify for a Reverse Mortgage, homeowners must meet age and equity requirements and maintain the property in good condition. Dale works with homeowners in Eugene, Springfield, Portland, Newport, and Brookings to review their eligibility and prepare the necessary documentation for a smooth approval process.
