Reverse Mortgage
You have heard that a home is an investment, but did you know that the equity in your home could potentially serve as a retirement asset?
Homeowners in and around Pasadena, CA who are looking to supplement retirement income or establish “stand-by” credit can consider taking out a reverse mortgage, generally a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM).
With a reverse mortgage, it is possible to release equity from your home. This equity can be used to pay bills, finance the purchase of another home, or cover other expenses as determined by the homeowner.
C2 Financial Corporation – Dino Palmieri reverse mortgage experts can guide you through the process step-by-step, explaining how they work, the benefits, and the potential downsides. If you feel a Reverse Mortgage is right for you, we will help you apply and get approved quickly and easily.

How Much Will You Get?
Depending on your specific situation and goals, your reverse mortgage can give you access to your equity in diverse ways to fit your needs.
TENURE
If you would like to receive equal monthly payments if the borrower is living in the home as the primary residence, this is called “tenure.”
TERM
If you would like to receive equal monthly payments for a certain number of months, that is called “term.”
LUMP SUM
Generally, you can take out up to 60% of your initial principal limit in the first year.
FAQ’s
Q: Do I have to pay back the reverse mortgage?
A: Yes. A reverse mortgage is a loan. You may pay it off at any time in full, or you have the option of waiting for a maturity event. This would include for example the death of the last borrower or a sale of the home.
Q: What happens when the loan closes or I die?
A: If you were the last surviving borrower, the loan will be due and payable by your heirs. If they do not wish to pay off the loan and keep the home, they must sell the home to repay it. If you have a surviving spouse, whether the loan is due depends on your spouse’s status.
Q: Why consider a reverse mortgage instead of a home equity line of credit (HELOC)?
A: A reverse mortgage requires no monthly mortgage payments, and offers you more flexibility than a HELOC. Your lender also cannot revoke, reduce or freeze your reverse mortgage so long as you are compliant with all terms.
