How much can you borrow with a reverse mortgage?

Reverse mortgages are a type of mortgage that makes it possible for older homeowners to borrow money by using the value of their home as security.

The maximum loan amount with this lender is $4,000,000. Note that the maximum loan amount you can borrow will vary depending on the value of the property, your age, how much you owe on it, and your creditworthiness.

American Advisors Group Reverse Mortgage requires borrowers to have an equity of at least 50% of the property value. It also has a maximum loan to value rate of 50%. That means the total debt secured by the property cannot exceed 50% of its value. Let's say you own a property with a current market value of $100k, but you still owe $20k on your mortgage. Your equity would be $80k. In this scenario, if you have good credit, you may qualify for a reverse mortgage of up to $30k.

Reverse mortgage rates can be fixed or variable. Fixed rates do not change over the life of the reverse mortgage, but they are only available to homeowners who choose a lump sum payment reverse mortgage. Adjustable reverse mortgage rates are used for borrowers who choose a line of credit or regular payments. They depend on two factors: an index and the lender's margin. Combined they form the adjustable rate charged to borrowers.
