Are you or someone you know exploring ways to make retirement more financially comfortable – without selling the family home?
I specialise in helping Australian seniors and retirees aged 60 years and over to access wealth tied up in their property through smart and strategic reverse mortgage solutions.
A reverse mortgage is a type of loan that allows homeowners aged 60 or over to access a percentage of the equity in their home without having to sell it.
Typically, repayments are not required until the property is sold, the borrower moves into aged care or passes away.
Borrowers have a few different options for accessing the funds such as:
In the past, reverse mortgages have, unfairly, had a negative association for some. It’s similar to the ‘ick’ vibe that was attached to bridging loans in the early 2000s. The thing is, reverse mortgages, just like bridging loans serve a legitimate purpose and can be a positive life-changing option for some.
Just like any other type of loan and financial decision, it’s a solution that needs to be carefully considered based on your current financial situation and future goals.
Below, I’ve outlined some of the reasons eligible clients choose reverse mortgages, plus my take on benefits, risks, and considerations I recommend borrowers keep in mind before applying.
As your finance broker, my aim is to guide you through a range of suitable home loan options, to help you weigh up the costs, the benefits and the negatives based on your individual situation.
A reverse mortgage may not be for everyone and there are other options that could be more suitable for you. It’s also important to note that not all lenders offer reverse mortgages, so you need to be sure you are approaching the bank that’s right for you.
