Yes, it does. The home needs to be habitable and stove is part of the home being habitable. I guess you can write an explanation that you are used to ordering fast food every night, but I doubt that it will fly with an underwriter. I might be wrong, but I don't think that the stove is required by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac guidelines, still, most the banks still require it. However, I have not made a conventional loan in my 9 year career without a stove. Underwriter will always ask for it. This is a very easy problem to cure - ask the seller to install it while negotiating. If the seller won't do it - have the buyer get it at Home Depot or sears. If the loan doesn't go through, the buyer can return it unused. There may be a restocking fee.

You can always get out of a reverse mortgage by refinancing it to a conventional mortgage, but before you do make sure its what you really want. A reverse mortgage is far better than most people realize. Not only do they not require payments and allow you to stay in the home as long as you live there, but they also have no personal recourse against you or your assets. A conventional loan does. As a result, if home values continue to drop and you get a negative equity situation, with a reverse mortgage you can walk away and the lender takes the full loss. With a conventional mortgage the lender can pursue you personally for any losses taken by filing for a default judgment against you. paying money to refinance out of a no payment no personal obligation loan to a forced payment loan with a personal guarantee may be a bad move depending on your situation. Finally if you want to you can always make a payment with a reverse mortgage. There is no prepayment penalty so pay whatever you want whenever you want. its just nice to know you don't have to pay if you can't. The only downside is you can't rent the home out.
VA rates are about the same as FHA. FHA is about the same as conventional or within .25% of conventional. The key with VA is that you don't have any mortgage insurance premiums as you would with FHA and conventional loans when putting a downpayment of less than 20% when purchasing a home. VA is also a zero downpayment loan.
