A reverse mortgage is a unique financial tool unlike any other in that it offers borrowers the ability to access their home equity without the burden of monthly mortgage payments. Using a reverse mortgage, you can access cash to supplement your income in retirement and age in place in your home.
A reverse mortgage with Mutual of Omaha may be just the solution who are house rich and cash poor, or looking to downsize or up size, to a new home.

A Reverse Mortgage, also known as a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM), is a type of home equity loan that may allow you to access the equity you have built up over the years or have available in a new purchase, while still keeping the title to the home in your name. This is all with no monthly mortgage payments and a simple financial assessment (homeowners must keep property taxes, insurance and HOA dues paid current and must maintain the home as their primary residence.)
