Two Proprietary Options. One Flexible Solution.

HomeSafe® Reverse Mortgages for Homeowners 55+

HomeSafe® proprietary reverse mortgages are provided by Finance of America & offer flexible options for homeowners aged 55+ who want access to their home equity without required monthly mortgage payments. Whether you want to replace your current mortgage or keep it and add a second-lien reverse mortgage, HomeSafe® provides solutions beyond FHA limits. Many homeowners exploring a homesafe reverse mortgage appreciate the flexibility these options provide. 

Why Homeowners Choose HomeSafe®

Reverse Mortgage Options Designed for Flexibility

HomeSafe® offers two proprietary reverse mortgage paths that allow homeowners to access equity while maintaining control over how their mortgage is structured. A homesafe reverse mortgage can provide solutions for homeowners with unique financial goals and higher-value properties.

Option to Replace Your Mortgage

The primary HomeSafe® reverse mortgage allows you to pay off an existing mortgage and eliminate required monthly mortgage payments. This option is ideal for higher-value homes and those seeking maximum flexibility. It may also help homeowners address common reverse mortgage problems by providing access to additional equity and customized loan options.

Option to Keep Your Mortgage

HomeSafe® Second allows you to keep your current low-rate mortgage in place while accessing additional equity through a second-lien reverse mortgage. This is ideal for homeowners who don’t want to disturb their existing loan. In some cases, homeowners considering a mortgage for second home may find that keeping their current financing structure is an important priority.

No Mortgage Insurance Premiums

Unlike FHA programs, HomeSafe® options do not require mortgage insurance premiums. This can lower upfront costs and reduce the overall expense of the loan. This benefit can be especially attractive for those comparing a homesafe reverse mortgage with other lending solutions.

Available to Homeowners 55+

In most states, HomeSafe® is available to borrowers as young as 55, allowing earlier access to equity than FHA reverse mortgage programs. This can provide financial flexibility while helping borrowers avoid some common reverse mortgage problems associated with limited loan options.

I had to get a shoulder replacement. It was going to be a major expense. The reverse mortgage has been amazing because I was recuperating and had no financial pressures. The people I worked with were amazing and made me feel totally comfortable. I couldn’t have been happier.

Common Questions About HomeSafe®

Clear Answers Before You Decide

HomeSafe® proprietary reverse mortgages offer more than one path to accessing equity. These FAQs help explain how the primary and second-lien options differ and when each may be appropriate. Whether you’re evaluating a mortgage for second home or exploring reverse mortgage solutions, understanding your options is important. 

Do I have to pay off my current mortgage with HomeSafe®?

Only if you choose the primary HomeSafe® reverse mortgage. HomeSafe® Second allows you to keep your existing mortgage and add a second-lien reverse mortgage.

Are monthly payments required?

No. Neither HomeSafe® option requires monthly mortgage payments, though optional payments are always allowed. This feature may help reduce concerns about certain reverse mortgage problems that homeowners often worry about.

How do I know which option is right for me?

It depends on whether you want to replace your current mortgage or keep it. A free assessment can help determine which HomeSafe® option may fit your situation. Homeowners evaluating a mortgage for second home may also benefit from discussing available financing strategies.

Do I still own my home?

Yes. You retain ownership and title with both HomeSafe® options as long as loan obligations are met. 

Understanding Your Two Options

HomeSafe® Second (Second-Lien Reverse Mortgage)

Key Topics Covered:

  • Second-lien reverse mortgage structure
  • Fixed interest rate and lump sum access
  • No additional monthly mortgage payments
