Beth's Reverse Mortgage Blog 
I have a reverse mortgage and it appears the amount of mortgage is outpacing the value of house and there is no way to pay the mortgage when we die or decide to leave for assisted living. What are our options.
Hi Scott, sorry for the delay in responding to your comment…my blog has moved to http://www.RMSIDAC.com/beths-reverse-mortgage-blog so I do not monitor this site regularly. As a non-recourse loan, when you die or decide to leave the home, you or your heirs are not responsible for the difference if the loan balance is higher than the home can be sold for. When you are out of the home make sure you or your estate reach out to the servicer within 30 days to let them know you are out of your home. At that time the servicer will advise you or your estate of the options.
Note that if the home is sold for more than the loan balance, the difference goes to you or your heirs.
