Have you said any of these things? 

• "The kids are Finally gone and we really don't need this big of a place. "The Yard is just too big to take care of now."

• "We really don't need a pool. It's just extra work and money" 

• "Maybe I should be thinking of a single story"

• You are not alone. Many people have used the proceeds of their current residence to purchase a new home and DON'T HAVE TO MAKE ANY PAYMENTS!

 

How Does a Reverse Purchase Work?
Here is an example of how a Reverse Mortgage Purchase works: 
John and Jane have owned their home for 30 years, the kids are gone and they need a single story home. They can sell their home for $500,000. (There may be a small mortgage on the home or, it may be paid in full) Let's say they have a small loan and the proceeds from the sale end up being $400,000. They take $200,000 of the proceeds and use it for a down payment on a $400,000 home. The other $200,000 needed comes from the Reverse Mortgage. That leaves them with $200,000 cash in the bank AND THEY DON'T HAVE ANY PAYMENTS!!  Of course you are still responsible for the taxes and Insurance on the home just like you were on your previous home.  Now John and Jane can take that vacation they've always wanted, buy that new car that they've needed or help their Grandchildren with College.
