Did you know? Reverse mortgages are continuing to gain popularity for older homeowners in Canada!
For many Canadians who are looking to retire but currently facing high debt load and ongoing expenses,
as well as reduced income, it can be a challenge. This is where the reverse mortgage can help!
This product is also a great option for anyone wanting to assist their elderly parents. Instead of
selling the home and moving them to a care home or assisted living, a reverse mortgage is a terrific
way to access the equity in the home, month by month, to pay for in-home and ongoing care costs.
The goal of the reverse mortgage is to allow Canadians over 55 years to tap into the equity of
their home, which assists in comfortable financial living. With a reverse mortgage, however, borrowers
are not required to make regular payments. This allows them a considerable inflow of cash, without
having to pay off what they owe! The only time payment will be required is when you sell or move
out of your home.

Reverse mortgages are designed to allow you to access up to 55% of your home’s equity, thereby
allowing you to convert your home equity into cash. This can be done as either a one-time lump
sum payment, or you can choose to structure it to receive monthly payouts.

Beyond being able to cash in on your home’s equity, a reverse mortgage also has:
• No monthly mortgage payments
• No income or credit qualifications
• Very low / little paperwork required
• Title and ownership of property remain in homeowner’s name
• Flexible options to break term early if needed
• Penalty waived in the event of death or care home placement to preserve the estate

If you are struggling financially, or want to have a little extra equity on hand to pay off existing
debts, gift money to family, expand your quality of life or simply increase your investment portfolio,
