HECM for Purchase
A New Way to Buy a Home in Retirement
Buying a home during retirement can be an exciting opportunity, but using a large portion of your savings for a new property may not always be the ideal solution. A HECM for Purchase is a reverse mortgage option designed for eligible homeowners aged 62 and older who want to purchase a primary residence while using the proceeds from the transaction to help finance the home.
This program combines a home purchase with a reverse mortgage, potentially allowing qualified buyers to purchase a home with a larger upfront investment while avoiding traditional monthly mortgage payments. The homeowner remains responsible for meeting the obligations of the loan, including property taxes, homeowners insurance, maintenance, and living in the property as the primary residence.
Purchase a Home With Retirement in Mind
Retirement can bring changes in lifestyle, location, and housing needs. You may want to move closer to children or grandchildren, find a single-level home, relocate to a preferred community, or simply choose a property that better matches your current lifestyle.
A HECM for Purchase may help eligible homeowners make that transition without relying entirely on the proceeds from the sale of another property or using all of their available retirement savings.
The amount required from the buyer and the available loan proceeds depend on factors such as the homeowner’s age, the property, and applicable program requirements.
More Flexibility for Your Next Home
A new home can be an important part of a well-planned retirement. With a HECM for Purchase, eligible homeowners may have an opportunity to use their financial resources differently while purchasing a primary residence.
The program can be particularly useful for homeowners considering a move because of changing space requirements, family considerations, lifestyle preferences, or a desire to live in a different community.
