A reverse mortgage is an increasingly attractive proposition for older Americans who may be low on cash, need to supplement retirement income, and want to use their home equity to remain in the house they own. That's a tempting opportunity in an age where millions of U.S. seniors are struggling to save enough money for retirement. Data from AnytimeEstimate shows that 56% of Americans believe they will outlive their retirement savings, and 16% of Americans have saved zero dollars for retirement.

Even so, there are some risks involved in cutting a deal on a reverse mortgage (otherwise known as a home-equity-conversion mortgage.)

I love what I do! because I really change peoples lives. So many of us think life is good , but how can it be so good when so many seniors are living from thier social security check. Sure, you can pay the bills but is that why you worked for all your life? Did you forget to have fun while retired? Ever imagine what it would be like if you could take trips? A cruise, or visit the kids more often? Do more for your grand kids? Do more for yourselves! Check out my website to find out more, and use the free reverse mortgage calculator to find out how much you may qualify for. We have peaked at the high end of home prices. Now it has started a slow quiet down turn.
