San Jose Reverse Mortgage Key

Seniors in San Jose with a reverse mortgage are able unlock some of that equity and use it however they see fit. And the best part is that they do not have to make any monthly mortgage payments for as long as they live in their home. These seniors who once thought finances may force them to sell their home can now stay close to their friends, family and familiar places. This makes a San Jose reverse mortgage very attractive.

FHA Reverse Mortgage Guidelines

The guidelines say that the FHA reverse mortgage (which is the Home Equity Conversion Mortgage or HECM for short) cannot use any value of the home that exceeds $417,000 in determining the amount of money they will lend to the homeowner. These are low limits for a reverse mortgage in the San Jose area and often do not make sense when the home value is over $800,000. Since there are thousands of homes that are worth more in the San Jose area, a reverse mortgage with different guidelines – specifically higher loan limits – is often used.

FHA is Not the Only Reverse Mortgage in San Jose

A non-FHA reverse mortgage is a program that is very similar to the FHA program in almost every way except that it can be much more appropriate for the high value homes that our area enjoys. Often called a Jumbo Reverse Mortgage, in San Jose and the surrounding area it is used almost as frequently as the FHA reverse mortgage because it can offer vastly more money.
