Anyone aged 60 or over who owns their own home can apply for a Heartland Reverse mortgage.
Today, many seniors are finding that a Reverse Mortgage is giving them new freedom to unlock their accumulated wealth. What's more, unlike some other loans you don't have to sell your home and your title remains in your name.
Unlock the equity in your home and use your funds for whatever you choose. For example:
At Greater Bank, we’ve partnered with Heartland Bank to provide you with a reverse mortgage loan option.
A reverse mortgage allows you to release the equity in your home, and use the funds to live a more comfortable retirement, without having to sell. You can opt to take the loan as a lump sum, a regular income stream, a cash reserve or a combination of these options that suits you.
While no loan repayment servicing is required, credit providers are required by law to lend you money responsibly so not everyone will be able to obtain this type of loan. The credit provider must ensure you can meet the loan conditions (such as rates, insurance, body corporate costs, and home maintenance).
Interest is charged like any other loan, except you don't have to make repayments while you live in your home for as long as you choose - the interest compounds monthly and is added to your loan balance. You remain the owner of your house and can stay in it for as long as you want.
You must repay the loan in full (including interest and fees) when you sell your home or pass away, move into long term care (in most cases), or move out of the property for another reason.
