Understanding Reverse Mortgages

Hosted by Wade Pfau, PhD, CFA, RICP – Founder of Retirement Researcher.

In the past, reverse mortgages generally had a poor reputation (and for good reason). However, a lot has changed since then. There is significant research showing that Reverse Mortgages can be powerful tools in your retirement income plan. Reverse mortgages should be viewed as a method for responsible retirees to create liquidity for an otherwise illiquid asset, which in turn can create new options that potentially support a more efficient retirement income strategy (more spending and/or a greater legacy).
