How this data was derived: Reverse mortgage counts reflect FHA-insured HECM loans endorsed over a rolling 12-month period (Dec 2024–Nov 2025) using HUD HECM Snapshot data. Active lenders represent unique FHA sponsor numbers with at least one endorsed loan during this period. Estimated homeowners age 62+ are based on U.S. Census ACS 5-year owner-occupied households age 65+ as a conservative proxy. Home values are sourced from Zillow’s Home Value Index (latest available).

HUD-Approved Direct Reverse Mortgage Lender
At All Reverse Mortgage, Inc. (ARLO™), we are a HUD-approved direct lender authorized to originate and service the FHA Home Equity Conversion Mortgage, commonly known as a reverse mortgage.
The HECM program is federally insured and designed for homeowners age 62 and older. It allows qualified borrowers to access a portion of their home equity while eliminating required monthly mortgage payments, as long as they continue to live in the home and meet basic homeowner responsibilities.
In Sun Lakes, we commonly assist homeowners with:
-
Paying off an existing mortgage to eliminate the monthly payment
-
Accessing home equity for retirement income or other financial needs
-
Establishing a line of credit that grows over time
-
Refinancing an existing reverse mortgage when it makes sense
Borrowers may repay the loan or sell the home at any time without a prepayment penalty.
About All Reverse Mortgage, Inc.
Reverse mortgages are all we do.
Our team has more than 20 years of experience helping older homeowners evaluate reverse mortgage options clearly and responsibly. We were part of the team that created and delivered the first fixed-rate jumbo reverse mortgage in 2008, giving us deep experience across both FHA-insured and proprietary programs.
Today, we offer:
-
FHA-insured HECM reverse mortgages
-
Jumbo and proprietary reverse mortgages for higher-value homes
-
Reverse mortgage refinance options
Our role is to explain how each option works, where it fits, and where it may not. Clear information leads to better long-term decisions.
Sun Lakes Reverse Mortgage Lending Limits
Sun Lakes is a well-established active adult community in the southeast Phoenix metropolitan area, known for its golf courses, country clubs, and long-term homeowner base. Many residents have lived in the community for decades and have built meaningful home equity.
With an average home value around $467,000, most Sun Lakes properties fall well below the 2026 FHA HECM lending limit of $1,249,125. That makes the standard HUD-insured reverse mortgage accessible to many eligible homeowners without the need for a jumbo loan.
For homeowners with higher-value properties, proprietary jumbo reverse mortgage programs may offer additional borrowing flexibility. These loans are privately funded and are not FHA-insured, so terms and consumer protections differ.
Is a Reverse Mortgage a Good Fit in Sun Lakes?
For the right homeowner, a reverse mortgage can be a practical retirement planning tool.
Sun Lakes homeowners often explore reverse mortgages to:
-
Eliminate monthly mortgage payments
-
Improve monthly cash flow during retirement
-
Create a standby line of credit for future needs
-
Remain in their home long-term without downsizing
A reverse mortgage is not right for everyone. Loan balances grow over time, and the home will eventually need to be sold or refinanced when the last borrower leaves the property. Understanding those tradeoffs upfront is essential.
Accurate data and clear guidance matter.
