The Idaho FHA Reverse Mortgage, also known as an HECM, is a loan made to a person age 62 or older. There are no income, credit or health requirements associated with the loan. The amazing thing about the Idaho FHA Reverse Mortgage is that you can take out a lump sum payment (tax free) to yourself or you can have a monthly payment sent to you (tax free) every month or you can have a line of credit set up for when you need it. All of these things without having to make a monthly payment for the rest of the time you occupy the property as your primary residence for as long as you live. This is what is referred to as an FHA Reverse Mortgage.

There are many Common FHA Reverse Mortgage Questions. The most common question tends to be, does the government own the property after you move out of the home? This common understanding is not true, for example if you were to own a home with an FHA Reverse Mortgage and you move out or pass away. The family (heirs) would be able to sell the house and keep the profits if the amount owed on the property was less than the amount it sold for. Now if the property is worth less than the amount owed to the lender on the property and the home is sold, the home is FHA insured and the government would pay the lender the remaining portion that is owed.
