The amount a reverse mortgage can pay you each month varies based on 3 factors:

1. The appraised value of the home

2. The age of the youngest borrower

3. The interest rate at the time of the closing of the loan

These 3 factors first determine how much in total money you qualify for, then from there you get to choose how you would like to receive the money.

There are several ways to receive your money from a reverse mortgage. You can receive the money:

1. As a lump sum at closing

2. As a monthly installment to you each month

3. As a line of credit from which you can draw over time when needed

You can also use any combination of the above 3 methods to suit your financial situation.

How do you pay off your house in a reverse mortgage?

You "can" pay off the reverse mortgage at anytime. You simply pay the bank the current balance of the reverse mortgage. There are different ramifications depending on the structure of the reverse mortgage. The largest portion of the cost of a reverse mortgage is in the closing costs and the accrued interest over the years. The interest only accrues at the agreed upon interest rate. Actually, upon death of the "Last surviving borrower" on the reverse mortgage there are three options. 1. If the Heirs want the home they can refinance it for the balance of the Reverse mortgage. 2. If there is equity, the heirs can sell the home, pay off the mortgage and jeep the overage. 3. If the Reverse mortgage has reached the value of the home ( or the non-recourse limit ) the heirs can simply walk away and owe nothing on the home. Also any other estate assets are protected from recourse. You can refer to hud.gov or aapr.org for more details.
