How You Can Buy A House With A Reverse Mortgage...

Good Morning!
I touch on this every now and then, because I want you to know it's possible to purchase a home with a Reverse Mortgage, and how it works.
I’ll give you an example.
Let’s say you are 65 years old. You want to buy a $200,000 house.
You have $110,000 to put down on the house. However, you don’t really want a mortgage payment.
You can put down your $110,000.
Get a reverse mortgage for $90,000.
…and, you will never have a mortgage payment for the remainder of your life (as long as you stay in this house).
With reverse mortgages the older you get the more loan you can get.
Here is a chart of the age of the youngest borrower vs the percentage of loan to value ratio you can borrow.

Of course you can also get a reverse mortgage to get cash out of your existing home.

Creative Way To Come Up With Down Payment On A House...

Good Morning!
 
If you want to buy a house, but you’re short on cash in the bank here’s an idea.
 
You can sell an asset to generate cash for a down payment. …such as a boat, car, etc.
 
Here’s how to structure it for a mortgage…
 
You must create a bill of sale reflecting the date of sale, asset to be sold, and the sales price.
 
The buyer’s and seller’s signatures are required on the bill of sale.
 
Copies of all checks, and deposit slips are also needed.
 
A picture of the item sold is also helpful.
That’s it for today!
 
Have a good day! …and thanks for reading.
