A reverse mortgage is a mortgage, but it is a special type of mortgage.
A reverse mortgage allows you to access the equity in your home and convert it to tax-free cash.
The cash funds that you receive are not identified as income and can be used for whatever purpose you wish; hence they are received – by you – tax-free …. and you can receive the money as a lump sum or as advances over time.
Regular monthly mortgage payments are not required! One of the terms of the reverse mortgage that makes it a special type of mortgage is that you are not required to make regular mortgage payments to the Lender for as long as your home is your primary residence.
Therefore, if:
- You are a Canadian Homeowner
- Your age is 55 or older
- Plan to remain in your home, and
you need money to relieve financial pressures or increase your cash flows into the home without the demand of regular monthly mortgage payments; all with the peace of mind that you will maintain complete ownership of your home.
