Reverse mortgage loan advances are not taxable, and generally don’t affect your Social Security or Medicare benefits. You retain the title to your home, and you don’t have to make monthly repayments. The loan in Brighton Massachusetts must be repaid when the last surviving borrower dies, sells the home, or no longer lives in the home as a principal residence.

Types of Reverse Mortgage Loans

Lenders generally charge an origination fee, a mortgage insurance premium (for federally-insured HECMs), and other closing costs for a reverse mortgage. Lenders in Brighton Massachusetts also may charge servicing fees during the term of the mortgage. The lender sometimes sets these fees and costs, although origination fees for HECM reverse mortgages currently are dictated by law. The amount you owe on a reverse mortgage grows over time. Interest is charged on the outstanding balance and added to the amount you owe each month. That means your total debt increases as the loan funds are advanced to you and interest on the loan accrues.

What You Need to Know About Reverse Mortgage Requirements


Although lenders offer their own proprietary products, 90 percent of all reverse mortgages in Brighton Massachusetts and elsewhere are insured by the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Federal Housing Administration, and known as "home equity conversion mortgages," or HECMs.

Brighton Massachusetts Reverse Mortgage Financing

Although some reverse mortgages have fixed rates, most have variable rates that are tied to a financial index: they are likely to change with market conditions. Reverse mortgages in Brighton Massachusetts can use up all or some of the equity in your home, and leave fewer assets for you and your heirs. Most reverse mortgages have a "non-recourse" clause, which prevents you or your estate from owing more than the value of your home when the loan is repaid.
