If you’re 62 or older and exploring ways to improve your financial flexibility in retirement, a reverse mortgage might be the solution you’ve been searching for. As a Reverse Mortgage Specialist serving clients throughout Prescott, Prescott Valley, Phoenix, Flagstaff, and Northern Arizona, I’ve helped countless homeowners use their equity to live more comfortably—without selling their home.

Here are six signs a reverse mortgage could be the right fit for you or someone you care about:

  1. You’re 62+ and Own Your Home
    You must be at least 62 and live in the home as your primary residence. Whether you own your home outright or have a remaining mortgage balance, you could qualify.
  2. You Want to Eliminate Your Monthly Mortgage Payment
    A reverse mortgage pays off your existing mortgage, which means no more required monthly mortgage payments. You’ll still need to cover taxes, insurance, and upkeep—but your monthly budget could suddenly feel much lighter.
  3. You’d Like Extra Cash Without Selling Your Home
    Many of my clients use reverse mortgages to supplement their retirement income, cover medical expenses, make home upgrades, or simply enjoy life a little more—without selling or downsizing.
  4. You’re Planning to Stay in Your Home Long-Term
    If you’re committed to aging in place, a reverse mortgage can help you stay where you’re most comfortable. It can also provide funds to make your home more accessible and safe as your needs evolve.
  5. You’re Feeling Financial Strain on a Fixed Income
    If inflation or unexpected costs are straining your finances, a reverse mortgage can provide much-needed breathing room—without dipping into savings or taking on new debt.
  6. You Want to Protect Your Legacy and Your Loved Ones
    Reverse mortgages are non-recourse loans, meaning neither you nor your heirs will ever owe more than the home is worth at the time of sale. This can give you peace of mind while protecting your other assets.

Let’s Talk About What’s Right for You
A reverse mortgage isn’t for everyone—but it can be a powerful tool when used wisely. My job is to help you understand the pros, cons, and whether this strategy supports your goals.

If you’re curious, let’s have a conversation—no pressure, just honest answers.
