Frequently Asked Questions
What are the eligibility requirements for a reverse mortgage in Lansing Michigan?
Borrowers must be at least 62 years old and own their home outright or have a low mortgage balance. The home must be the primary residence and meet HUD property standards. Michigan law also requires a mandatory counseling session with a HUD-approved counselor before the loan application.
How does Michigan law affect reverse mortgage proceeds?
Michigan does not tax reverse mortgage proceeds as income. However, borrowers must continue paying property taxes and homeowners insurance. If the borrower moves out or passes away, the loan becomes due and the home may be sold to repay the balance.
What happens if I outlive my reverse mortgage loan in Michigan?
A HECM reverse mortgage is a non-recourse loan, meaning you will never owe more than the home is worth at the time of sale. In Michigan, if the loan balance exceeds the home value, the Federal Housing Administration insurance covers the difference. You can live in the home as long as you meet loan obligations.
