Retirement planning has traditionally excluded housing wealth. Today, with volatile investment and interest rate markets, more individuals are taking a fresh look at reverse mortgages to help meet their long-term goals. In this three-session study, we will read and review two nationally recognized reverse mortgage authors and watch the training provided by the Official Education Partner of the Financial Planning Association. Subjects to be covered include how a reverse mortgage works with a review of eligibility, costs, misconceptions, safeguards, and several case studies. We will cover how to manage long-term care costs, delay social security, and address the bad reputation of reverse mortgages. We will wrap up with a powerful presentation on “A new discovery in risk reduction.” Books will be provided at no charge for this course.
