Frequently Asked Questions:

Q.

How is the amount of a reverse mortgage determined?

The reverse mortgage amount is determined by several factors: the age of the youngest borrower, the home’s appraised value, and current interest rates.  The HUD Principal Limit Factors (PLF) table sets the loan-to-value ratio, ensuring you get a precise estimate of how much you can borrow.

Q.

How do interest rates affect reverse mortgage calculations?

Interest rates significantly influence the loan amount available to you.  A lower rate means you can borrow more, while higher rates reduce the available funds.  Keeping an eye on current rates is essential for maximizing your loan.

Q.

How does the HECM line of credit growth rate work?

The growth rate of a HECM line of credit increases your available funds over time.  It is calculated by adding the current interest rate to the mortgage insurance premium. This rate applies to the unused balance, allowing your credit line to grow monthly.

Q.

How are monthly payments on a reverse mortgage calculated?

Monthly payments vary based on the total loan amount, the chosen payment plan, and the borrower’s age.  Older borrowers typically receive higher monthly payments due to shorter life expectancies.  Choosing between tenure or term plans can further customize your payment amounts.

Q.

How is the lump sum payment calculated?

The lump sum payment is determined by HUD guidelines and covers mandatory obligations such as closing costs and existing debts. Depending on the loan type, you may receive a lump sum at closing or have additional funds available through a line of credit.
