What is a Reverse Mortgage? Q & a

Q. What is a reverse mortgage?

A. A reverse mortgage is a loan that enables senior homeowners, age 62 and older, to convert part of their home equity into tax-free* income ”without having to sell their home, give up title to it, or make monthly mortgage payments. The loan only becomes due when the last borrower (s) permanently leaves the home.

Q. How is a reverse mortgage like a home equity loan? How is it different?

A. Both a reverse mortgage and a home equity loan use the equity you have built up in your home to provide you with readily available cash. They differ in that with a home equity loan you must make regular monthly payments of principal and interest. However, with a reverse mortgage you do not make any monthly mortgage payments for as long as you stay in the home.

Q. Can my current income influence my ability to get a reverse mortgage?

A. No. Since reverse mortgage borrowers need not make monthly repayments, there are no income qualifications.

Q. What are the advantages of a reverse mortgage?

A. There are many. Here are a few of the most significant: * Remain independent. A reverse mortgage allows you to remain in your home and retain home ownership. * Stay in your home. It allows you to remain in your home and retain home ownership. * No monthly mortgage payments. You need not pay back the reverse mortgage loan nor make any monthly mortgage payments until you permanently move out of the home. * Tax-free money. Because the money you receive from a reverse mortgage is not considered income, it is tax free* and will not affect your Social Security or Medicare benefits. * Freedom and flexibility. The money you get from a reverse mortgage is yours to use in any way you choose.

Q.I heard that with a reverse mortgage the lender would own my home. Is this true?

A. Totally false. The borrower retains title to the property. The reverse mortgage lender is merely extending a loan to the borrower. Because the homeowners retain title, they remain responsible for the payment of property taxes, insurance, utilities, home maintenance, and other expenses — just as they would with a standard first mortgage or home equity loan.

Q. Can I refinance a reverse mortgage, as I would be able to do with a traditional home mortgage?

A. Yes. Re financing can make sense if your home increases in value or interest rates drop.

Q. Is it possible for my loan balance to become greater than the value of my home?

A. No. You can never owe more than what your home is worth. What’s more, since the reverse mortgage is what is known as a “non-recourse” loan, the lender cannot seek repayment from your income, your other assets, or your estate. In other words, the house stands for the debt.

Q. Can a reverse mortgage lender take my home away if I outlive the loan?

A. No they cannot. And the loan is not due at that time either. In fact, you don’t need to repay the loan as long as you or another borrower continues to live in the house and keep the taxes paid and insurance in force.

Q. How do you determine the amount of cash I am eligible for?

A. The amount you can borrow depends on several factors, including your age, the type of reverse mortgage you select, current interest rates, the location of your home, and the appraised value of your home and FHA’s lending limits for your area. In most cases, the older you are, the more valuable your home, and the less you owe on it, the more money you can get.

Q. Are there any limits on how I use the money I receive from a reverse mortgage?

A. You can use the money for anything you choose, from daily living expenses, home improvements, health care expenses, paying off existing debts, or simply enhancing your retirement years. For many people, the money provides a “financial security blanket,” in case unexpected expenses arise.

Q. Is there a choice in how I receive the cash from my reverse mortgage?

A. Most definitely. With most reverse mortgages you have a wide range of payment options, one of which should be ideal to meet your financial needs. * You can choose to receive the money all at once, as a lump sum. * You can receive equal monthly payments as long as one of the borrowers lives and continues to occupy the property as a principal residence. * You can choose to receive equal monthly payments for a fixed period of months. * You can get a line of credit*; which allows you to take funds at times and in amounts of your choosing until the line of credit is exhausted. This is the most popular option, chosen by more than 60% of reverse mortgage borrowers. * You can opt for a combination of line of credit with monthly payments for as long as the borrower remains in the home. * Or, finally, you can choose a combination of the above. * Note: in Texas, lines of credit are not permitted by state law.

Q. Who can qualify for a reverse mortgage? A. Seniors 62 years of age or older qualify. There are no income, health or credit qualifications. Q. I still owe money on a first or second mortgage. Can I still get a reverse mortgage?

A. Yes. You may be eligible for a reverse mortgage even if you still owe money on a first or second mortgage. The funds you would receive in the reverse mortgage would be used to pay off whatever existing mortgages you have on the property.

Q. Can I get a reverse mortgage on a second home or resort property I own? A. Unfortunately no. Reverse mortgages may only be taken out on your primary residence.

Q. What kinds of homes are eligible for a reverse mortgage?

A. First and foremost, the reverse mortgage must be on the borrower(s) primary residence, that is, where they live most of the year. Most reverse mortgages are taken on single family, one-unit homes. Some programs also accept two-to-four unit buildings that are owner-occupied. Some programs grant reverse mortgages on condominiums and manufactured homes built after June 1976. Mobile homes and cooperatives are generally not eligible for a reverse mortgage. Click here to contact the Financial Freedom representative nearest you to determine if your home is eligible.

Q. Would a home that is in a “living trust” be eligible for a reverse mortgage?

A. Yes. In most cases a homeowner who has put his or her home in a living trust can usually take out a reverse mortgage. A review of the trust documents would be made by the reverse mortgage lender to determine if anything in the living trust would be unacceptable.

Q. When will I have to pay the principal and interests cost of this loan? A. Your reverse mortgage loan becomes due and must be paid in full when one or more of the following conditions occurs: (a) the last surviving borrower passes away or sells the home; (b) all borrowers permanently move out of the home; (c) the last surviving borrower fails to live in the home for 12 consecutive months due to physical or mental illness; (d) you fail to pay property taxes or insurance; (e) you let the property deteriorate, beyond what is considered reasonable wear and tear, and do not correct the problems.

Q. What has to be repaid when the loan becomes due?

A. When the last surviving borrower permanently moves out of the home or dies, the reverse mortgage loan becomes due. The reverse mortgage principal, interest charges, and service fees (such as closing cost fees) are paid from sale of the house or other assets of the estate.

Question by tradejewel: How can I convince my mortgage lender to lower my interest rate?
My mortgage will go to adjustable soon and what can you tell your lender so the interest stays the same? I have a 3/1 arm.

Best answer:

Answer by Big Sky 23
You really have no control over your interest rate. You can try to plead that you don’t have the money if it increases, but… tough shit. You can try to compare interest rates in your area, but it won’t do any good because the terms of the loan you signed are unique.

That’s the entire point of an ARM, the interest rate stays low for the first few years, then is subject to increase after that. Sorry if you don’t understand this, but that is not your lender’s fault.

You’re not alone (millions of borrows don’t understand the terms of the legal documents they sign regarding mortgages), but that might not give you much comfort.

An Introduction Into Mortgage Insurance

August 31st, 2010 by Bank Loan | No Comments | Filed in News
mortgage
by Frodrig

An Introduction Into Mortgage Insurance

Few people have the cash lying around to pay for a piece of real estate in its entirety. In order to become a homeowner, you’ll need to apply for a mortgage – a loan that allows you to purchase real estate. However, when you budget for your monthly mortgage payments, that

principle and interest of your mortgage loan aren’t the only things that you’ll need to include in your financial plan. You may also be required to purchase lender’s mortgage insurance, which is also sometimes called private mortgage insurance or PMI. Private mortgage insurance is an unexpected expense for many first-time real estate owners. Don’t get surprised be this expense!

Private mortgage insurance is meant to protect the lender, not you. If you should stop making payments of your mortgage, your lender has the right to begin foreclosure proceedings. However, this is not the best-case scenario, as lenders aren’t in the business of owning property. They need to sell as soon as possible, and depending on the market, this often means that they sell way below market value. If that sell price doesn’t cover the amount left on your mortgage, the lender can case in the private mortgage insurance policy you’ve purchased. This will cover the rest of the cost of the house to ensure that the lender does not lose any money in the long run.

Not everyone has to buy private mortgage insurance. It depends on the terms of your mortgage. Usually, mortgage lenders ask that you pay about 20% of the total property’s cost in the form of a down payment. However, if you don’t have a lot of money saved up, it is still possible to get a mortgage. This is where the private mortgage insurance comes into play. Usually, you are required to pay for an insurance policy for the lender until you’ve completely paid off that 20% of the mortgage’s principle.

Sometimes, the terms are a bit different, depending on the circumstances. For example, if you have a jumbo mortgage (a very expense loan for a high-priced property), you may be required to keep your private mortgage insurance property for a longer amount of time. Or, if you have an interest-only mortgage payment plan, in which you don’t pay on the principle right away, you might not have to carry the plan until the mortgage’s principle is paid of at 20%.

What kind of rate can you expect when it comes to private mortgage insurance? That depends on your specific situation. For some people, the monthly premium will be fairly low. For others, it might be fairly high. However, no matter what kind of premium you have to pay, the important thing is that you are prepared to pay it. Some of the main factors that come into play when insurance agents are determining your private mortgage insurance rate are the following: how much you did pay in a down payment, the total price of the loan, the type of property you are purchasing, and your credit score. The more likely you are to pay the mortgage in full, according to these standards, the more likely you are to get a lower insurance rate.

Some people have successfully avoided the need for private mortgage insurance by using the piggyback loan strategy. With this kind of mortgage lender, you’re using more than one loan in order to pay for the real estate. You make a 20% down payment, but only by using a second (piggyback) mortgage to pay for part of that down payment. So, you might have an original loan for 80%, a second loan for 10%, and a 10% out of pocket down payment. This way, you avoid the need for private mortgage insurance.

However, the cost for private mortgage insurance might actually be lower than what you pay for the interest on your second loan, depending on the factors listed beforehand. This used to be rare, but today, private mortgage insurance is tax-deductible. That means that it is now less expensive for some homeowners to get private mortgage insurance than it is for them to go for the second mortgage loan. This law will be in effect until at least 2010. It doesn’t apply to mortgage agreements signed before January 1, 2007.

Although private mortgage insurance doesn’t affect everyone, for many people, this is an expense they have to pay. Be prepared for it. If you are going to purchase a home using a mortgage, it is important to understand your expenses before you sign on the dotted line.

Mortgage and It?s Quotes

A mortgage property is a security for the performance of the obligation, usually the payment of a debt. While a mortgage is not a debt, it is evidence of a debt. It is a transfer of an interest in land, from the owner to the mortgage lender, on the condition that this interest will be returned to the owner of the real estate when the terms of the mortgage have been satisfied or performed. In other words, the mortgage is a security for the loan that the lender makes to the borrower.

Mortgage rates in California are affected by many factors, such as the credit score of the borrowers, down payment made, amount of the loan applied for, and the policies of the lender. The mortgage rates are mostly front-loaded, which means that the initial payments are used towards paying interest on the loan, not the principal. To compare the rates available for mortgages, borrowers can approach many mortgage brokers in California. These brokers have the expertise and experience to help their customers find the best deal. They have access to many mortgage plans of various companies, and can therefore help in comparison of rates and features.

Mortgage Calculator and Fixed Rate Mortgages

Mortgage Calculator and Fixed Rate Mortgages

 

A mortgage calculator is a useful tool to help we budget for our new mortgage. A good mortgage calculator allows us to calculate our monthly payments based on our desired interest rate, taxes, and insurance. Here is how this useful tool can help we avoid common mistakes when refinancing our mortgage.

Mortgage calculators can provide us valuable information about our mortgage. A good mortgage calculator will show us monthly payment information and amortization tables to help us understand how our mortgage works. Amortization with a mortgage calculator describes the process of paying interest and principle graphically; using a mortgage calculator can help us get our head around a complicated financial concept like amortization.

In many parts of the country the average price for a home has gone up significantly over the past few years. This makes it difficult for many people to qualify for the financing they need using a traditional mortgage lender. Many of these individuals have turned to 80/20 mortgages to secure 100 percent of the mortgage financing they need.

Internet mortgage leads are indispensable for mortgage lending companies and brokers. The mortgage leads are lifelines to their business. That’s why they always look for qualified and cost-effective Internet mortgage leads. Borrowers often search for mortgage lending companies on the web. Initially they get in touch with the lead generation companies with their loan requests. They submit their requests to the mortgage lead generation companies by filling out an online application form. The lead generation companies send the applications, after screening them carefully, to the mortgage brokers and lending companies. Here the screening is necessary to ascertain the reliability of the loan application. The mortgage applications then become leads. Mortgage brokers and lending companies in turn contact the borrower via e-mail or telephone.

Lead generation companies use advanced technology to find suitable Internet mortgage leads. Here the quality of Internet mortgage leads depends on how sophisticated the lead generation process is. Mortgage-generating companies always aim to offer suitable and profitable mortgage leads to lending companies.

The major advantage of a fixed rate mortgage is that it presents a predictable housing cost for the life of the loan. A fixed rate mortgage guarantees that our interest rate stays the same, which means that our monthly principle and interest payments through the entire term of the mortgage remain unchanged. With a fixed rate mortgage, our monthly payments would only increase due to increases in property taxes or insurance rates.

In general, fixed rate mortgages are seen as the safer alternative to an adjustable rate mortgage. An ARM is considered riskier than a fixed rate mortgage because our payment may change significantly. If we have an ARM, it may be best to lock in a fixed rate mortgage now, in advance of our current loan adjustment.
