Eligibility Requirements for a Reverse Mortgage
To qualify for a reverse mortgage, borrowers must meet certain age, equity, and property requirements. Generally, applicants must be at least 62 years old, own their home outright or have a significant amount of equity, and occupy the home as their primary residence. Loan Velocity, Inc. helps assess these criteria thoroughly.
Beyond the age and equity thresholds, the property itself must be a qualifying primary residence, typically a single-family home, condo, or townhouse.
