What is a jumbo reverse mortgage loan?
The jumbo reverse mortgage loan was created to help more
seniors find a way to convert their home equity into cash. With
it, Americans age 62 and older can unlock their home equity into
tax-free money without having to make any monthly mortgage
payments.* We recommend consulting your tax advisor when
researching a jumbo reverse mortgage loan.
A jumbo reverse mortgage is similar to a traditional HECM
reverse mortgage, only it’s not insured by the Federal Housing
Administration (FHA). This means that you can now take
advantage of loan amounts up to $4 million, a significantly higher
amount compared to a HECM reverse mortgage, which caps the
home value used to calculate your loan proceeds at $679,650.
*Borrowers are responsible for paying property taxes, homeowner’s
insurance, and for home maintenance.
