Rules have changed, don't buy a book on reverse mortgage published before October 2015! Financial Assessment is covered here. This book covers the basics to advanced topics on reverse mortgage and retirement finance. Starting with the history of reverse mortgage up to current practices. Learn what it takes to qualify, how this loan works, if the loan is for you, and how to step through the whole process. We cover the life of the loan and how it is ultimately discharged. We also look at advanced strategies now being used by financial advisors to extend and improve your retirement finances! HUD guidelines changed at the end of 2013, 2014, and again in 2015, so be sure your information is up to date!
