What is a Reverse home loan?

A reverse mortgage provides senior homeowners with the option to convert part of their equity into tax-free money. Borrowers are not required to sell the home, give up title, or take on a new monthly mortgage payment. The reverse mortgage is aptly named because the payment stream is “reversed.” Instead of making monthly payments to a lender, the lender can make payments to the homeowner.

It is a negative amortized loan. The balance grows over time since no payment is made to the principal or interest. This can be worrisome to most people, but since the product allows for payment to be made after the borrower permanently leaves the home, it is actually a significant benefit.
