How to Use the Reverse Mortgage Calculator

  1. Enter Your Zip Code: Start by entering your zip code.  This ensures we calculate accurate third-party closing costs, including local appraisal fees, title insurance, and recording fees.
  2. Estimate Your Home’s Value: Provide your address to get an accurate estimate of your home’s value, which is essential for calculating your reverse mortgage limit.
  3. Age of the Youngest Borrower: Input the age of the youngest homeowner on the title.  This helps determine your maximum loan amount, or principal limit.
  4. Current Mortgage Balance: If you have an existing mortgage, enter the outstanding balance.  Your reverse mortgage will help pay off this balance, freeing up funds.

 

Reverse Mortgage Calculator Tips

  1. Include Your Spouse’s Age: If you’re at least 62 years old, don’t forget to include the age of any younger spouse, even if they’re not yet eligible.  Their age can affect your loan amount and the terms of your reverse mortgage.
  2. Timing Can Increase Your Loan: Planning to close your reverse mortgage within six months of your next birthday?  This timing could potentially increase your loan amount as lenders adjust principal limit factors based on age.
  3. Account for All Liabilities: To ensure an accurate estimate of how much you can borrow, including all mortgage balances, liens, or other liabilities.  This gives a full picture of how much you’ll have available after paying off any existing debts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q.

How is the amount of a reverse mortgage determined?

The reverse mortgage amount is based on key factors such as the age of the youngest borrower, the appraised value of the home, and current interest rates.  The HUD Principal Limit Factors (PLF) table sets the loan-to-value ratio, giving you a clear estimate of how much you can borrow.

Q.

How do interest rates affect reverse mortgage calculations?

Interest rates play a major role in determining how much you can borrow.  Lower interest rates allow you to access more funds, while higher rates reduce the loan amount.  Monitoring current rates is important to maximize your reverse mortgage.

Q.

How does the HECM line of credit growth rate work?

The HECM line of credit grows over time by applying a growth rate to the unused balance.  This rate is calculated by adding the current interest rate to the mortgage insurance premium, allowing your available credit to increase monthly.

Q.

How are monthly payments on a reverse mortgage calculated?

Monthly payments are determined by the total loan amount, the payment plan you choose, and the borrower’s age.  Older borrowers typically receive higher payments due to shorter life expectancies.  You can choose between tenure (lifetime) or term plans to customize your payment structure.

Q.

How is the lump sum payment calculated?

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