The equity in your home is yours to use. With a lump sum payout or fixed monthly payment, you can access your earned equity for home renovations, healthcare costs or other major expenses. Use the proceeds of your reverse mortgage to eliminate your monthly mortgage payment and free up funds in your budget.
Set up a growing line of credit as a standby safety net that can be used when unexpected expenses arise. Watch the unused principal grow over time, giving you access to more funds the longer it goes unused. Use a reverse mortgage to right-size to a home that meets your long-term goals while incurring no monthly mortgage payments on your new home loan.

Why should I get a reverse mortgage instead of refinancing, financing or getting a home equity loan?. With a reverse mortgage, you do not have to make any monthly mortgage payments (homeowners must keep property taxes, insurance and HOA dues paid current and must maintain the home as their primary residence).

A reverse mortgage for purchase is offered to seniors wanting to purchase a home without using all their personal resources they may have gained from the sale of a previous home or from their retirement accounts. A reverse mortgage for purchase is best utilized when downsizing from a larger home to a smaller one (or moving into your dream retirement home on the coast/golf course or in the mountains).

Open Mortgage in San Antonio, headed by Melinda Hipp, just completed our Reverse Mortgage. She and her team (Cynthia) are not only experts, they are courteous, professional and always go the extra mile to maximize the client's position in securing all advantages prior to closing. They always return calls promptly and make the complex nuances of HECM's understandable. Without reservation, I recommend Open Mortgage if you are shopping for a Reverse Mortgage.

She is a wonderful communicator with our clients, me, and our agents.
