What is the downside to a reverse mortgage?
Reverse mortgages, like all mortgages, come with loan closing costs and fees, which are typically financed as part of the loan. The main downside of a reverse mortgage is in the worst case scenario where in a depreciating market, the homeowner could end up owing more on their loan than their home is worth. This is due to interest that accrues each month. It's important to note that in this case, the bank would accept the home as collateral and NOT go after the beneficiaries for any balance.

Who pays the insurance on a reverse mortgage?
The borrower is generally responsible for paying the homeowner's insurance premium. This is set up with your insurance agent and can typically be paid monthly or annually. The borrower does not directly pay the mortgage insurance on a reverse mortgage. Instead, the lender is responsible for paying the mortgage insurance premium, typically financed into the loan amount. This insurance is generally included in the closing costs when taking out a reverse mortgage.
