What is a reverse mortgage?
A reverse mortgage is an extremely powerful loan product that helps put homeowners back in the financial driver’s seat.
It does this by allowing them to access the equity they have already built in their own home in the form of a brand new income stream.
It is available to anyone 62 years or older and gives them the opportunity to remain in their home rather than face the unpalatable thought of having to sell it, just to make ends meet.
Homeowners can be paid in many different ways including weekly or monthly payments, a line of credit, a lump sum or even a combination of all three.
The real beauty of a reverse mortgage is that as long as the terms of the loan are met, there is no need to repay it until either the homeowner sells the residence or the last surviving borrower passes away.
It means retirees can stop counting every penny and start thinking about ways to spend them.
Start living the high life with that long-planned vacation, dinners and shows and spoiling your beloved family – they are all possible with a reverse mortgage.

About San Clemente, California
Sebastian explorer Sebastian Vizcaino is credited with naming San Clemente Island in 1602 after Saint Clement (Pope Clement I).
The city was founded in 1925 by the former mayor of Seattle Ole Hanson with the intention of creating a “Spanish village by the sea”.
He envisioned a seaside retreat for those who wanted to escape the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles and longed for fresh air, pristine beaches and mountain views.
Lying midway between Los Angeles and San Diego, San Clemente is the southernmost city in Orange County.
It is renowned for its Spanish colonial-style architecture as well as its surf coast.
Trestles is one of the west coast’s most famous surf beaches and is mentioned in the equally famous Beach Boys song “Surfin’ USA”.
The city rose to prominence in 1969 when President Richard Nixon purchased a summer holiday house in San Clemente. He would later call it the “Western White House”.
Visitors love walking the San Clemente Pier which offers a great place to dine, fish or simply watch the sun set.
The spectacular San Clemente Beach Trail runs for 2.3 miles connecting North Beach with Calafia Beach.
