Reverse Mortgage Cons

We have seen a handful of new reverse mortgage lenders and reverse mortgage brokers using a heavy “debt consolidation” pitch to push more consumers into reverse mortages. Reverse Mortgages can be a great tool for debt consolidation however certain steps need to be followed to insure you don’t repeat your previous actions and go back into heavy debt, because at that point you won’t have your house to bail you out.

One key to remember that isn’t always told by some brokers/lenders. You still are 100% responsible for your property taxes and insurance. When looking for debt consolidation, it is important to factor in what you will be paying for your taxes and insurance on a yearly basis and factor that into your number crunching.

Reverse Mortgages are a wonderful and can be great at reducing or eliminating other high interest rate debt, however it is important to really number crunch your required monthly outlay before jumping in.
