Reverse Mortgages Have Many Pros, But the Cons Get the Most Press
Due to the mounting negative press associated with reverse mortgages, the National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Association (NRMLA) is planning a public affairs campaign to further educate homeowners and to spread the benefits of the loan to those who have only heard about its alleged downfalls. NRMLA does not want the negative press and misconceptions about the loan to prevent homeowners who could benefit immensely from a reverse mortgage from even considering the loan.
As part of the upcoming campaign, data about current reverse mortgage borrowers will be collected, including how they use their reverse mortgages and how it has affected their lives in terms of how the loan has helped them financially. This information will be shared with the public in order to portray the truth behind this type of financing and to show what a positive impact the loan can have on a homeowner’s life.
