Reverse Mortgage Application Process

Before applying for a reverse mortgage loan, it is important to think about its effect on your estate as well
as the well-being of the people that you will leave behind. Your RMFS Adviser will assist you with these considerations.

With a reverse mortgage you are not required make regular monthly payments, so the loan balance could grow over time.

The longer you live, the more interest can accrue. It is the principal equity sum you have drawn – plus any accumulated interest and fees – that is subtracted from the future sale of the home. In most cases, this will affect the amount of inheritance that your beneficiaries will receive when you pass away.

You also need to consider aged care and medical needs in the future. If you think you will need to move into aged care, you may need to ensure that you have the money to pay for your bond and other expenses. If your only asset is your home, unlocking its equity could affect your capacity to afford for your aged care in the future.
