FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the FHA HECM Program?
A Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) is a FHA insured program for Seniors 62 years of age and older, who are looking to reduce or eliminate their monthly mortgage payment*. Tax-free cash* out is also often available. It is not free money or a government handout. It is a friendly and flexible loan that gives you the option of making any payment that fits your budget, even if that payment is zero. This program allows Seniors to safely tap into their home equity. The HECM is the FHA's version of the Reverse Mortgage.
Who is eligible? Who should enroll?
The HECM is not for everyone, but Seniors with sufficient equity who would like to Eliminate Their Monthly Mortgage Payment*, and who can benefit from Tax-Free Cash* -- which can be used for any purpose -- are the best candidates.
How is the FHA HECM safe for Senior homeowners?
The HECM is insured by the Federal Housing Administration and is regulated by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, HUD, to protect the Senior.
The FHA has been insuring HECMs since 1989.
With a HECM, no matter what happens in the economy, or to property values, you will never be required to make a mortgage payment. Yet your home still belongs to you, and remaining equity is passed on to your heirs.
Who owns the home if I take a HECM?
You own the home. Your home is collateral just like with a traditional mortgage.
What happens to the loan if I don't make a payment?
If no payment is made, the loan accrues interest and the balance will increase. Hopefully, your quality of life and the balance in savings account will also increase.
When does a HECM become due and what happens then?
When you no longer live in your home for twelve consecutive months, or when you pass away, the HECM becomes due. You or your heirs have two options:
1) Pay off the HECM including any accrued interest through a refinance, or
2) Pay off the HECM through sale of the property.
Remaining equity goes to you or your heirs. You and your heirs are NOT liable for any shortfall.
