Reverse mortgage loans are for senior homeowners looking to convert part of their home equity into cash. These loans are “reversed” since the lender pays back the borrower, and borrowers are not required to repay the loan until they leave the property.

Is a San Diego Reverse Mortgage Loan Right for You?

A reverse mortgage loan might be right for you if you are 62 years old and above, you own your home and you’d like to turn some of the equity in your property into cash that you can use.

Benefits of a Reverse Mortgage Loan

Increased Liquidity

A reverse mortgage loan lets you access cash out of your home’s equity.

No Credit Required

Since you’ve already paid off your loan, there’s no need to worry about defaulting. A good credit score is not required.

No Income Necessary

Unlike other loans, you don’t need to have any income to qualify for a reverse mortgage loan.

Flexible Payment Options

Receive cash as a lump sum, monthly payment, a line of credit, or a hybrid of these options.

Reverse Mortgage Loan FAQs

  • Can my lender take away my home if I outlive the loan?

    No. You do not need to repay the loan provided that you or one of the borrowers continues to live in the home. Property taxes and insurance also need to be current.

  • How much cash can I get?

    There are different factors to consider including: the appraised home value, your age, current interest rate, or the FHA’s mortgage limits for your location. Typically, the more valuable your home is, the older you are, and the lower the interest, the more you can borrow.

  • Will I still have an estate that I can leave to my heirs?

    You or your estate will repay the cash you received from the reverse mortgage loan, plus interest and other fees to the lender when you sell your home. If there is remaining equity in your home, then it belongs to you or to your heirs.

Rated one of the top 100 mortgage brokers in the nation

I shopped around a bit for a broker, and was referred to John by a coworker. He was by far the most personable, professional, and proactive broker that I interacted with. He promised me that he was doing everything he could to protect my family's money and get us into a house that we love, and he did. The bottom line is he got us our desired results, he offered great advice, and he earned my trust and confidence. I would recommend his services to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and passionate mortgage broker.

John is great at what he does, especially for first time homebuyers. He is willing to go the extra mile for his clients and will explain exactly what he's doing along the way. I'm so glad we were able to work with him and I highly recommend him.

Beyond grateful to have been referred to John G. right after getting our offer accepted on a home. We would not have been able to do it without him. He secured us a great rate, which was a game changer in our decision to purchase. It was our first home purchase, and he helped us navigate every single thing, and was extremely responsive and available to chat when we needed him. The entire escrow process was smoother and quicker than we could have ever hoped for. He was a pleasure to work with, and we hope to continue to work with him in the future.
