I hope you can join one of my upcoming webinars; invite a friend, a neighbor, your financial advisor or legal expert. Come one, come all! My goal is to share the latest academic research and various program guidelines with anyone interested in learning more about retirement income, housing wealth, ways to improve financial outcomes throughout retirement, and much more.
I love helping older Americans (and their family of advisors) understand the many choices and tools they have at their disposal. Mis-information abounds in the media and the world at large. I like to stick to the facts, and give real-life examples of how you can --even after retirement begins, completely revamp your financial position to live your best life now.

I have known Mary Jo for well over a decade. She is a consummate professional, smart, and as well versed as one can be on the Reverse Mortgage program. More importantly she is caring and conscious of how her actions effect others. Bottom line Mary Jo is a great person, and consistently shows up in amazing ways. There are a lot of good Reverse Mortgage professionals out there, but if you choose Mary Jo your a winner!

We recommended Mary Jo Lafaye to my mother-in-law who needed guidance around the issue of reverse mortgages and would it be something for her to consider. Mary Jo was VERY patient with her and made her feel much better about her financial situation and what the next move should be. We were all, my wife, mother-in - law, and myself extremely impressed with Mary Jo's professionalism, clarity, no nonsense and compassionate manner. She also has access to slew of resources if she can't help you directly. I would recommend her in a second for any financial issue.

Mary Jo is truly one of the best reverse mortgage consultants in the country! I am also a reverse mortgage consultant. When I recently had a customer in Mary Jo's neck of the woods, I did not hesitate requesting Mary Jo's assistance to fulfill the client's needs, even though I might have attempted to assist from afar. This particular woman needed a bit more "hand-holding" than others. Mary Jo put her at ease with her knowledge of the programs, the ability to help select the one that best fit her needs, and her responsiveness to all her questions. And, I know that Mary Jo will continue to be available

Mary Jo knows her reverse mortgages. I highly recommend her - She saved the day for a Seller of mine who was having a nightmare situation with Wells Fargo in getting the reverse mortgage payoff demand for a time sensitive hard deadline to close an escrow. Mary Jo is an expert in this field - she knew who to contact to get this process moving - if you are considering a reverse mortgage she isTHE go to person in this industry. As a real estate broker working with multiple lenders, I cannot say enough about how she assisted my client.
