Phoenix Arizona Reverse Mortgage Information
Across Arizona, more people are turning 62 every day and entering into the "golden years" of their lives. The "small-town feel" community of Phoenix, Arizona has transformed from a rural farming community to a busy activity-oriented one where seniors enjoy the active pace of life.
Phoenix isn't full of cotton fields anymore!
Phoenix is consistently ranked high in the "active adult" category by many the major national senior-oriented publications and enjoys 9 months of "great" weather. Many seniors choose to live in the Phoenix area during the winter months to escape the freezing conditions found in the Northeast.
Many seniors in Phoenix have chosen to enjoy their golden years rather than worry about making their next mortgage payment -- they have started putting their mortgage to work for them by using a Reverse Mortgage.
Phoenix FHA Reverse Mortgage HECM
The Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) FHA-insured Reverse Mortgage can be used by senior homeowners age 62 and older to convert the equity in their home into tax-free monthly streams of income and/or a line of credit to be repaid when they no longer occupy the home.
A reverse mortgage loan is different that a traditional home loan because instead of making mortgage payments, a reverse mortgage actually pays you every month.
- No monthly mortgage payments
- Title remains in your name
- Tax-Free money can be used in any way you choose
- Option for a credit line to handle life emergencies or unexpected expenses
- No income, credit or health requirements
- Eliminate debt by paying off mortgages and credit cards
Phoenix FHA Reverse Mortgage Counseling
HECM / reverse mortgage counselors will discuss program eligibility requirements and provisions for the mortgage becoming due and payable. Upon the completion of HECM counseling, you should be able to make an independent, informed decision of whether this product will meet your needs.
Phoenix FHA Reverse Mortgage Qualifications
As long as you live in your home and keep your taxes and insurance paid, you can never be forced out. The federal government also guarantees your reverse mortgage, which means that you don't ever have to make a payment, you can never owe more than your house is worth and your heirs can make the decision on whether to sell or move into the house.
To qualify for a reverse mortgage, you must:
- Age 62 years of age or older
- Own your property
- Occupy your property as primary residence
- Single family home or 1-4 unit home with one unit occupied by the borrower
- HUD-approved condominiums
- Manufactured homes and leased land
- Participation in a consumer information session given by an approved HECM counselor
