Important Information About EquityAvail. The borrower is required to make non-amortizing payments for the first ten years of the loan term. These payments will not cover the full amount of interest accruing and interest will be added to the principal balance of the loan. When the payment period ends, interest and fees continue to be added to the loan balance over time. Borrower is required to pay taxes and insurance. This loan will reduce the borrower's equity in the home which may make it more difficult to refinance the loan or to obtain cash upon the sale of the home. By refinancing an existing loan, the borrower's total finance charges may be higher over the life of the loan. Primary occupancy only. Not available in all states.

For Reverse Loans: When the loan is due and payable, some or all of the equity in the property that is the subject of the reverse mortgage no longer belongs to borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan with interest from other proceeds. The lender may charge an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium, closing costs and servicing fees (added to the balance of the loan). The balance of the loan grows over time and the lender charges interest on the balance. Borrowers are responsible for paying property taxes, homeowner's insurance, maintenance, and related taxes (which may be substantial). We do not establish an escrow account for disbursements of these payments. A set-aside account can be set up to pay taxes and insurance and may be required in some cases. Borrowers must occupy home as their primary residence and pay for ongoing maintenance; otherwise the loan becomes due and payable. The loan also becomes due and payable (and the property may be subject to a tax lien, other encumbrance, or foreclosure) when the last borrower, or eligible non-borrowing surviving spouse, dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, defaults on taxes, insurance payments, or maintenance, or does not otherwise comply with the loan terms. Interest is not tax-deductible until the loan is partially or fully repaid.
