All Products listed are offered by Reverse Mortgages SIDAC. The Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM), currently the most common reverse mortgage, is federally insured and regulated. Lending limits are set by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) based on the county in which one lives. Offering the most choices on how the funds are received makes the HECM the most versatile reverse mortgage program. The interest rate is based on the LIBOR (London Inter-Bank Offertory Rate) plus a margin.  There is a servicing fee with all the HECM products, currently $30 a month with Reverse Mortgages SIDAC. A service set-aside is implemented to cover
the monthly servicing fee.

With a higher margin the interest rate is higher and less funds are available to borrowers, making this HECM program seldom chosen.With some of the same features as the HECM Monthly Adjustable Rate program, the HECM Fixed offers a fixed rate option. There is one rate for borrowers drawing 100% of their available funds upfront. With this option funds are not available in a line of credit or for monthly payments. A higher fixed interest rate applies to those choosing to receive their funds as tenure, term, line of credit or a combination of these. The rate is based on the U.S. Treasury Index plus a margin with a rate lock available. While a fixed rate reverse mortgage sounds
enticing, once it is understood, it is seldom the best choice for a
reverse mortgage. This is because the interest rate is higher initially
and less funds are available than with the more common monthly
adjustable rate. The lowest fixed rate is available when all the funds
are drawn up front – the rate is much higher for the monthly payment or line of credit fixed rate options. Another disadvantage with the Fixed Rate is interest is being accrued on all funds drawn up front when it may not be necessary to take all the funds initially. Additionally, the growth rate is not available on the funds in the line of credit on the Fixed Rate program. The Monthly Adjustable Rate using the CMT has averaged 6.19% over the last 15 years. This means in the big picture, the Monthly Adjustable program costs less. Click here for this week's interest rates.
