Let's get started...
 
Reverse Mortgage in Danville, CAWe are talking about a targeted audience - Senior Homeowners/Borrowers. By utilizing the Reverse Mortgage for Home Purchase program, (FHA and HUD approved), seniors are provided with a way to downsize easily, and as a result the Realtor closes more transactions.
 
The program was designed to allow seniors the option of purchasing a new principal residence by utilizing a reverse mortgage instead of a traditional mortgage to purchase Reverse Mortgage in Danville, CA
the home. This is also attractive because at this time, credit scores, income, and debt ratios are not considered in granting the reverse mortgage. This program makes it easier for senior homeowners to relocate (be closer to family members) or downsize to more age appropriate homes. 
 
Let's look at this hypothetical situation:

Reverse Mortgage in Danville, CAThe wife lives in Lafayette in a home once worth $1.8M, then $1.5M, and now maybe $1.M. Everything was fine as long as her husband's pension and annuities were still making the $800,000 mortgage. But recently her husband died, and now she doesn't have enough income to make ends meet. She lives in fear of eventually losing her home, because she knows it's just a matter of time before she runs our of money. What does she do about her situation? Nothing! Why? Because she believes she is stuck in her own private agony without any possible solution. I suspect that there are quite a few seniors in this same situation who are afraid to reach out for help until it's too late.
 
What can be done?

Let's pretend that upon the sale of her property, and after she pays off the mortgage and deducts capital gains and costs, the senior receives a net "profit" of $150,000 or maybe $200,000. She fears this is not sufficient to live anywhere nearby without a huge mortgage. However, the informed Realtor has a solution.
 
By taking the $150,000 and using a reverse mortgage to finance the balance of a new home purchase, we can help her buy a home valued between $300,000 to $450,000. And, she doesn't have a monthly mortgage payment as a result.  Plus we didn't have to deal with credit scores, debt or income ratios.  Why?  Because this is a reverse mortgage. In this scenario, if her net profit was $200,000 from her home sale, she now would have $50,000 extra for a savings account, or she could purchase a nicer Reverse Mortgage in Danville, CAhome valued up to $600,000.
 
So what just happened? With your help, she found a new home to enjoy in her retirement years, and she doesn't have the worry of being foreclosed upon for non-payment of a mortgage. (She must however, maintain her home in a habitable condition, keep current on her property taxes and keep adequate current homeowner's insurance). Now you have a happy client that is in a "safe" financial position, and living in a new home. Without the reverse mortgage this senior was in jeopardy of losing her home and suffering in her own private agony. You solved her problem and created two (2) sales where not even one sale existed previously.  All without credit scores, debt ratios and income considerations.

Is this still a valid way of purchasing a home? If so, how is the purchasing power determined?

The short answer, is that right now, because interest rates are so low, it is based primarily on age and home value.  We are not typically concerned with debt ratios or credit score, because there aren't any monthly mortgage payments.  Also, the older the borrower, the more they are eligible to get.  (I teach CE classes to Realtors and Realtor Associations on the HECM for Home Purchase product for Realtors) 

Please feel free call me and I'll give you the complete answer.
