For many homeowners, a reverse mortgage can be a smart financial tool.
Reverse mortgages can be a smart financial tool in the right situation, helping aging homeowners access the equity they have accrued in their home. It can allow people to stay in their homes longer and provide funds for retirement such as travel & living expenses.
A reverse mortgage is a type of loan that allows homeowners aged 55 or older to borrow money against the equity in their home. Unlike traditional mortgages, where you make monthly payments to repay the loan, with a reverse mortgage, you receive regular payments from the lender that cover the cost of your mortgage payment. *Note: Olympic Mortgages does not charge fees for this service.

Reverse mortgages have a No Negative Equity Guarantee. This means that when the mortgage is paid out, regardless of the market value of the home, only the balance owing on the mortgage will be due.
No, there is no tax payable on the funds you receive.
No. You retain ownership and title. The loan will be registered against the title just as a regular mortgage would, and takes precedence for payment once the house sells or the last living owner passes away.
