How the New Reverse Mortgage Changes the Retirement Planning Conversation

Overview

With the current economic confluence of cyclical interest rates, volatile markets (equities and real estate) and inflation, housing wealth has become one of the most important segments of retirement income planning.

Today’s financial advisor needs every legitimate tool available in order to meet their clients’ retirement goals as well as to maintain a viable long-term practice.

Housing wealth should be considered as part of an overall comprehensive financial plan.

Historically, the financial services community has either dismissed the reverse mortgage or relegated the tool as only a last resort.

However, for the past several years, reverse mortgages have grown in popularity and recent research has discovered that their strategic use may be helpful in positively impacting retirement outcomes.

To survive and thrive in retirement requires new thinking and a clear understanding of all the options available.

In this Elite Advisor Masterclass, Reverse Mortgage Expert, Adjunct Instructor at the American College of Financial Services, and Best-Selling Author Don Graves, RICP®, CLTC®, CSA, brings 25 years of practical case studies and academic research that demonstrate how the prudent use of the housing asset can dramatically improve retirement outcomes.
