“H4P”
The Last Time Home Buyer…
Slide2525
H4P: Potential Revolution in Financing Real Estate in Retirement Years
Beginning January 1, 2009:
FHA allows the reverse mortgage to be used as a primary financing tool for home purchase
HECM no longer limited to refinancing of existing residence
26
What does this mean?
Seniors 62 or over are able to purchase real estate by
combining
a down payment with a reverse mortgage at the closing table and
have no monthly payment
In this case study, the client will bring $236,900 to the closing table. The remaining $163,100 (41%) is provided by an H4P lump sum.
No principal or interest payments are due until the last homeowner dies, moves or sells.*Other property obligations such as tax and insurance must be met, no different than any homeowner.
