What Is a Reverse Mortgage?
A reverse mortgage is a home equity loan that allows Canadian homeowners aged 55 and older to access up to 59% of the value of their home.
You make no monthly payments with a reverse mortgage and the loan does not need to be repaid until you sell your home, move or pass away.
You can use the money from a reverse mortgage for any purpose and can receive the money lump-sum or in installments.
