What is a Reverse Mortgage and is it hard to obtain?
A Reverse Mortgage in Canada is a loan that allows to take funds from the equity in your home, tax free and with no monthly repayment contract.
It is a relatively easy process to apply for this mortgage:
1. Customer(s) must be over 55 years of age
2.Everyone on the title of the property must be 55 years of age or older
3.The home must have a value of $200,000. Or more and some property conditions apply
4. The home must be the applicant’s primary residence.
You can receive up to 55% of the value of the home but ages of the applicants play a big role in deciding how much can be taken out at any given time. And, of course, these funds are not taxable and therefore do not affect any supplements that you may have. Unlike a normal mortgage the financial qualifications are lower- basically all the lender wants to be sure is that you can personally cover the operating costs of your home on your own – heat, light, water, Strata fees (if any) Property taxes.
