Almost every reverse mortgage lender in Florida will tell you the same thing: you need to be at least 62. That is true for the government FHA reverse mortgage called the HECM. It has a federal minimum age of 62. But that is not the only reverse mortgage available. It is just the one most lenders offer because it is the most common government program. We offer a proprietary private reverse mortgage with a minimum age of 55. If you just turned 55 or are anywhere between 55 and 61 you may qualify for our program right now.
Sunshine State Home Loans offers a proprietary reverse mortgage available to Florida homeowners starting at age 55. This is not a government loan. It is a private proprietary loan that follows all applicable federal and state lending regulations but is not subject to the FHA age requirement of 62. We have helped Florida homeowners at age 55 access their home equity without selling their home or making monthly mortgage payments. Subject to property and borrower approval.
Available at age 55, seven years before the FHA program minimum of 62. You may qualify subject to approval.
Florida condo owners age 55 and older may qualify even if the community is not FHA approved. We evaluate each property individually.
No required monthly mortgage payments if you meet all loan obligations. Borrowers remain responsible for property taxes, insurance, HOA dues, and special assessments.
The FHA program charges an upfront mortgage insurance premium. Our proprietary loan does not, because it is not a government program.
