A reverse mortgage allows you to access tax-free cash against your home equity with no monthly interest payments. You can receive up to 55% of your home equity–in a lump-sum payment, periodic installments, or a combination–while retaining ownership. With no monthly mortgage payments required until you move or sell, it offers flexibility. Additionally, it’s a non-recourse loan, meaning neither you nor your heirs are liable for amounts exceeding your home’s value, provided property taxes and insurance are paid.
