Holly Pridgen2024-04-03Our office just closed on a purchase with Ben! My office was the title company for the closing. Ben is very efficient and a good communicator, which is essential to a successful closing. Often times we wait for the broker to get back with us and keep us in the loop. Ben always answers the phone and gets the info you need quickly so we can keep the closing moving. The closing went smooth, and the buyers were extremely happy Ben :)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

A reverse mortgage is a financial product that allows homeowners aged 62 and above to convert a portion of their home equity into tax-free funds without selling or moving out of their home. The loan is typically repaid when the homeowner sells the property, moves, or passes away.
With a reverse mortgage, borrowers receive funds based on their home’s appraised value, their age, and current interest rates. The loan does not require monthly mortgage payments and instead accumulates interest over time. The homeowner retains ownership of the property, and the loan is repaid when the home is sold.
Reverse mortgages are regulated by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and are designed to provide financial security for seniors. As long as borrowers meet their obligations, such as paying property taxes and homeowners insurance, reverse mortgages can be a safe and beneficial financial option.
No, you will retain ownership of your home as long as you meet the loan obligations, such as living in the property as your primary residence, paying property taxes, and maintaining homeowners insurance.
The funds from a reverse mortgage can be used for various purposes, such as supplementing retirement income, covering healthcare expenses, paying off existing mortgages or debts, home renovations, or simply enjoying a better quality of life during retirement.
The amount owed on a reverse mortgage will generally not exceed the appraised value of the home when it is sold. If the loan balance exceeds the home’s value, the FHA insurance will cover the difference.
