A Reverse Mortgage Can Help Your Children Buy A Home

 

Are you a Canadian 55 and older trying to help your family with a down payment on their first home? It is more difficult now than ever to afford a home because of rising home prices – which means your family could benefit from help now instead of waiting for an inheritance.

Often referred to as a "warm inheritance" many Canadians are releasing equity in their own home, to provide the much needed down payment for their children or grand children. A reverse mortgage has no payments, the outstanding interest is added to the balance and paid out when you sell your home. The cash you withdraw from your home is TAX FREE!

You retain ownership of your home, and you can live there as long as you able.
