How Much Money Can You Receive?

The amount of cash you can obtain from a reverse mortgage will depend on the program you select. Which of these also control how much you can borrow?

  1. The amount of equity you have in your home
  2. The current interest rate
  3. The condition your home is in

ALL of these factors may affect how much you can borrow. Generally the older you are and the more your home is worth, the more cash you can obtain. The age of the youngest homeowner and the property values and closing costs for your area may also influence the amount you get.
