HECM Myth #2
A reverse mortgage should only be used as a last resort.
FALSE! Many homeowners age 62 or older are using a reverse mortgage strategically as part of a sound financial plan.
For example, a reverse mortgage line of credit can serve as a cash reserve that you tap as needed. (And unlike a traditional
HELOC, the unused reverse mortgage credit line actually grows over time.)
Or, monthly advances can help you supplement other retirement income, so you can avoid withdrawing from savings or liquidating invested assets. In any case, no monthly payments are required, which can improve your cash flow and help you live more comfortably.
