Estate Planning:Protecting a Clients Legacy

While a home may hold a great amount of sentimental value for a family, the reality is that in most cases, the property is sold after the owner’s death. At a time when they should be simply allowed to grieve, the heirs are often forced to:

  • Sell the property quickly
  • Deal with real estate’s current market condition
  • Deal with additional inheritance taxes from the sale

One way to avoid these issues is to use a portion of the proceeds of a Reverse Mortgage to purchase life insurance. Upon death of the senior homeowner, that policy can be used to retire the Reverse Mortgage debt and return the home free and clear back to the family members. The end result with a Reverse Mortgage in place could be:

  • A debt free = hassle free transfer of the asset,
  • Not forced to sell
  • No other additional taxes to pay

Do you hear your clients say “…but I Don't Need the Money!”?

Most times seniors don’t plan sufficiently, and in case they have not, a Reverse Mortgage is always something upon which they can rely. Current market conditions make this an opportune time to get a Reverse Mortgage with high lending limits and low interest rates.

As an estate planning tool, a Reverse Mortgage is the smartest way to leverage assets in retirement.

Reverse Mortgage Potential Impact:

  • 40% of American homes are owned by seniors
    • 61% are owned free & clear
  • $3 trillion in untapped home equity
  • 85% want to remain in home (AARP study)
  • 51% of people 61-69 live paycheck to paycheck

Common Misconceptions:

“I'm giving my home away to the Bank”.

Homeowner retains ownership; a Reverse Mortgage is a loan.

“I can be thrown out of my home”.

Homeowner may stay in their home until a loan maturity event occurs.

“I can owe more than my house is worth”.

Homeowner can never owe more than the home value.

“My heirs will be against it.”

Experience demonstrates heirs are in favor of Reverse Mortgages.

It's time you got a NO OBLIGATION REVERSE MORTGAGE EDUCATION from a caring partner.
