If your savings is limited, you may be eligible for a down payment as low as 3% and reduced mortgage insurance.

A Reverse Mortgage provides homeowners (age 62 and above) with the ability to convert the equity in their homes into tax-free income or extra cash without having to sell the home, give up the title, or take on new monthly mortgage payments. With a Reverse Mortgage the payment stream is actually reversed: instead of making monthly payments to a lender (like a regular mortgage) a lender makes payments to the homeowner. Reverse Mortgages are offered through our affiliated mortgage partner, Credit Union Mortgage Association.
