How HECM for Purchase Works

With HECM for Purchase, borrowers use a combination of a down payment and reverse mortgage proceeds to buy a home outright. Once the transaction is complete, there are no required monthly principal and interest payments on the reverse mortgage portion. The borrower must occupy the home as a primary residence and continue to meet property obligations such as taxes, insurance, and maintenance. We guide clients through each step to ensure full compliance and understanding.

"FAQs"

To qualify, at least one borrower must be 62 years or older, occupy the home as a primary residence, and meet property and insurance requirements. Programs like HECM, Jumbo, Proprietary, and HECM for Purchase may have additional eligibility criteria.
