All Reverse Mortgage, Inc. (ARLO™) is approved with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to originate, underwrite and close the HUD Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM, or “Heck-um”). The HECM is HUD’s acronym for their reverse mortgage loan.
All Reverse Mortgage, Inc. (ARLO™) originates in Texas and offers refinance loans, where borrowers already own their home and are looking to either pay off their existing loan and have no more monthly mortgage payment; or can help borrowers utilize their equity for other purposes if they have no existing loan or possibly a combination of both.
The owners and management of All Reverse were part of the team that wrote and sold the first fixed rate jumbo reverse mortgage in 2008 and as such, have extensive experience in jumbo or proprietary loan programs as well.
We are always looking for new products to offer to borrowers of high valued homes in the higher home priced markets that the HUD HECM may just not serve as well. Jumbo or proprietary programs typically offer much lower Principal Limits as they relate to values though so not all borrowers are better served with the jumbo programs.
Only a seasoned originator can readily inform borrowers which program will best suit their needs and the positives and negatives of each so that the borrower can make an informed decision.
It is no longer uncommon anywhere in the country for a market to be a solid HUD HECM market and then within just a short distance for a niche jumbo market to be located where there is a need for a jumbo program.
Therefore, homeowners aged 62 and above in all markets have seen that the reverse mortgage can be a very solid financial tool, and many are now seeking the reverse mortgage to augment their retirement plans and not so much the mortgage of last resort.
Everything from the elimination of existing mortgage payments to the line of credit that grows make reverse mortgage borrowers understand that this program allows them to utilize their homes to not only live comfortably in their family home, but to plan as well.
Texas, also known as “the Lone Star state,” has an estimated population of over 29.95 million as of 2022, and over 1.3 million of those people are homeowners age 62 and older. That means almost one and a half million Texans may be eligible for a reverse mortgage.
As of January 2023, the average home value in Tennesse was $350,200, which is well below the maximum reverse mortgage lending limit of $1,089,300.
Texas has a rich and vibrant history as a territory in North America, which was home to a wide variety of indigenous peoples with no dominant culture until the arrival of Spanish settlers, wh o primarily controlled it up until the Texas Revolution in the 19th century. Although ultimately gaining its independence as a free state after the revolution, infighting between a couple of key factions led to early negotiations for annexation by the United States, and Texas ultimately became a state in 1845 after expansionist James K. Polk was elected to the presidency the year before.
Texas faced another crisis shortly thereafter with the onslaught of the American Civil War in the 1860s. General Sam Houston, who by that point had become Texas’ governor, was staunchly in favor of the Union but refused President Lincoln’s offer to send Union troops to ensure he would stay in office. After refusing to pledge his loyalty to the Confederacy, Houston was deposed as governor. While the state was thrown into a brief bout of turmoil after the fall of the Confederacy, but the civilian government was declared restored by President Andrew Johnson in 1866.
While the Civil War and the Great Depression provided two major economic blows to Texas, the state saw an abundance of federal money pour in during World War II as the government established military outposts, POW camps and munitions factories. On its own, Texas manufactured 3% of all American armaments used during the war.
The 1970s and 80s saw added economic prosperity to Texas, as the more industrialized areas of the state saw the economy rely less on the energy industry.
If you are looking to settle down in Texas, one perk is that its massive size allows it to exist in various climate zones. The panhandle of the state has colder winters than North Texas, for example, while the Gulf Coast has mild winters. On the western side of the state in El Paso, there is an average of 8.7 inches of rainfall annually, while other areas in southeast Texas can see up to 64 inches each year.
The state also offers a lot when it comes to the arts. Austin is the live music capital of the world. The city has more live music venues per capita than Nashville, Memphis, Los Angeles, Las Vegas or New York City.
Other venues for art lovers in Texas to check out include the Houston Grand Opera, the Houston Symphony Orchestra, the Houston Ballet, and the Alley Theatre.
Texas also has a long history of various countries having control over it. Because of this, it was given the slogan of “six flags over Texas”. The slogan is for the six countries that have had sovereignty over the state or parts of the state at some time. Those countries include Spain, France, Mexico, the Republic of Texas, the Confederate States of America and the United States of America.
