What happens when you have a reverse mortgage and the owner dies?
When the owner of a reverse mortgage passes away, the loan must be paid off. If the beneficiaries want to keep the house, they can refinance the loan, or use other assets to repay the loan. If they don't want to keep the house, they can sell it. If the market value of the house is less than what is owed on the reverse mortgage loan, the property can be returned to the lender without any recourse. The heirs are not responsible for repaying any remaining balance on the loan.

How does a reverse mortgage work?
A reverse mortgage works by allowing a homeowner to borrow money against the equity in their home. The loan does not need to be repaid until the homeowner dies, sells the home, or permanently moves out. The loan amount is based on the age of the borrower and the value of the home. Borrowers must also meet certain eligibility requirements set by the lender. The borrower is not obligated to make monthly mortgage payments, instead, the interest due on the loan accrues. Homeowners are still responsible for paying taxes and insurance on their property.

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.
