A Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) for Purchase is a reverse mortgage that allows seniors, age 62 or older, to purchase a new principal residence using loan proceeds from the reverse mortgage.
Down payment amount • HECM for Purchase: Required down payment between approximately 29% and 63% of the purchase price, depending on buyer’s age or Eligible Non-Borrowing Spouse's age, if applicable. (This range assumes closing costs will be financed.) The rest of the funds for purchase come from the HECM loan. This allows the buyers to keep more assets to use as they wish, as compared to paying all cash, while still having the flexibility of no required monthly mortgage payments.
It also greatly increases the buyers BUYING POWER, since he is not having to use all cash to purchase a home.

For senior homeowners who obtained a reverse mortgage several years ago, This is a great time to look at refinancing their Reverse Mortgage loan. The real estate boom of the last few years has caused home values to dramatically increase, creating more available equity. Plus, with interest rates still low, this also aids the borrowing power, as the lower rate affects the principle limit (or money available) at the beginning of the loan.

How Are Loan Amounts Calculated?
The buyer's minimum required down payment generally works out to be about 29% to 63% of the sales Price. This calculation is determined by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These are age-based loans that allow older borrowers to qualify for more in loan proceeds (see below).
AGE 62 Purchase Price $200,000 Down Payment Required* $127,507
AGE 67 Purchase Price $200,000 Down Payment Required* $120,507
AGE 71 Purchase Price $200,000 Down Payment Required* $116507
AGE 75 Purchase Price $200,000 Down Payment Required* $111,307
As you can see, the older the borrower, the greater percentage of the purchase price they qualify for. In the example above, a 67 year old borrower would put down $120,507 on a $200,000 home, and would have no Monthly Mortgage Payment. He is only expected to keep his insurance and taxes current , and keep the house in good repair, which he would anyway.
HECM for purchase can be used on Loan Amounts up to $679,650. If you would like to see how much you would qualify for, just give us call. We would be happy to show you more about how this great program works.
* Example shown is for illustrative purposes only. Actual down payment amounts vary based on interest rate, borrower age and other factors. This range assumes closing costs will be financed into the loan.
