Understanding Reverse Mortgages Today with Harlan Accola

Did you know there’s a way to tap into your home’s equity for tax-free cash—without having to make monthly payments? It’s true. It’s called a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage, or HECM—what many of you know as a reverse mortgage. But today’s reverse mortgage isn’t what it used to be. Harlan Accola is here to help us unpack how they work and whether one might be right for you. Harlan Accola is the National Reverse Mortgage Director at Movement Mortgage, an underwriter of Faith and Finance. He is also the author of Home Equity and Reverse Mortgages: The Cinderella of the Baby Boomer Retirement.
