RISMEDIA, January 20, 2010—Because so many Americans over the age of 62 are facing significant financial stress due to dropping retirement and savings account balances, as well as higher healthcare costs, many groups are targeting seniors under the guise of helping them,” said Scott Peters, CEO and President of Generation Mortgage. “HECM reverse mortgages are Federal Housing Administration-insured products and are heavily scrutinized by regulators and legislators looking to protect seniors’ best interests.

Buyers who wait until “prices come down more” are gamgling that interest rates will hold steady or drop.
Many buyers don’t understand that a 1 percent jump in interest rates on a 30 year loan, nullifies a 10 percent drop in home prices. This relationship between interest rates and home pricing remains essentially the same at any price point.

During the trial, banks and mortgage servicers reduced a homeowner’s monthly payment for 90 days, with a median reduction of about $500.
