HECM SOLUTIONS
9
Taylor (70) and Gia (Age 65) Roberts
Home Value $400,000
Let’s look at a few of the various
ways they could expand their
retirement strategy by integrating
the wealth in their home.
HECM SOLUTIONS
10
Taylor (70) and Gia (Age 65)
If Taylor and Gia had an existing Traditional mortgage, they
could refinance with the HECM, creating flexibility and
no longer have a mandatory P&I payment

When Taylor, his advisor and his OneTrust Home Loans Mortgage Professional looked into how
a HECM would work specifically, they determined that a HECM would produce approximately
$125,000 in available Line of Credit
They could delay the start of their social security payments and
maximize their lifetime wealth impact

They could start a Tenure payment – a monthly tax-free income
that will continue as long as they live in the home and pay the
property taxes, homeowner’s insurance, HOA fees (if applicable)

They could have access to an additional asset – Line of Credit -
that grows independent of the underlying home value

(must still pay Property taxes, Homeowner’s Insurance, HOA fees, maintain home)
Strategic Uses of a Reverse Mortgage
Asset Strategy
Help retirement
savings last longer
Mortgage Payoff
Paying off existing mortgage
(requirement of the loan)
Roth Conversion
Use LOC to reduce or cover
tax liability associated with a
conversion
Home Purchase
Purchasing a retirement home
that best fits their needs
(right size, move closer to family)
Home Repair
Funding home repairs,
modifications, or
renovations
Line of Credit
Establish a LOC for
unexpected
expenses or
opportunities
Social Security
Bridging social
security deferral gap
In-Home Care
Fund or Supplement
in-home care
Gift
Proceeds can be used for
almost any reason,
including inheritance
