Reverse Mortgages
A reverse mortgage is becoming increasingly popular among the retired and elderly who want to increase their monthly income. This debt instrument begins with the owner of a home essentially signing over ownership of a home to a lending institution and results in the institution providing a monthly income to the home owner. The agreement is that the owner can live in the home until they pass and will receive monthly payments until such a time. In a way, this allows a retired person to capitalize upon the equity in their home and utilize those resources maximally until their passing. It is important to note however that no one knows when they will pass but the lending institution will naturally structure such as reverse mortgage so that they profit maximally from the arrangement. So, this may be a saving grace for a lot of unprepared baby boomers out there, but it should be entered into with caution.
