Money From Jumbo Reverse Loans

California obviously has the most expensive properties in the country and a very high rate of citizens who are seniors but are carrying mortgages on their homes which are preventing them from retiring due to mortgage debt.

Many working seniors would like to retire but they can’t because of the ongoing mortgage payments and sometimes they find themselves withdrawing funds from their retirement investments to make the payment each month.

And depending on how many years are left on the mortgage, many are concerned about running out of money to make the payments and the other monthly obligations.

The average home value in California generally exceeds the HUD Lending Limit that is currently at $679,650 and if a homeowner has a home with a great deal more equity than the FHA HECM would allow them to withdraw, then a Jumbo reverse loan would be an additional option for consideration.

See what my clients are saying!

There are many new Jumbo loan programs to choose from that are superior to the FHA HECM in many aspects and are considerably less expensive in regards to fees.   Here are some highlights and are subject to change in the future.

  • Maximum loan amounts to 4 MM
  • Fixed rates or a LOC
  • 2nd T.D’s for those who would like access to their equity but currently have a 1st T.D. in place with a favorable interest rate they wish to keep, preserving more of their equity.  This option can also be used as a 1st T.D.
  • Origination fees vary by the loan choice but are “none” to either 6K or 8K maximum.
  • No Mortgage Insurance Premiums.
  • Non-Recourse Loan.    The borrower continues to own their home.  No equity sharing or pre-payment penalties.  The property will go to the heirs of the borrowers when they  (the borrowers) have passed away.
  • Can be used to purchase a home.  “Right-Sizing/Down Sizing”.
  • No payments are required other than the borrower must continue to pay property taxes, Homeowners Insurance, and HOA fees and keep the property well maintained.
  • No loan terms.
  • Borrowers must be at least age 60 or 62.   It depends upon the loan choice to determine the minimum age.
