Using housing wealth in retirement planning
The informative panel discussion will explore the various ways that senior homeowners can preserve and protect, lower costs, and safely utilize housing wealth for a more secure retirement. Topics will include the important differences between a traditional Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) and the Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM), the unique FHA government insured home equity credit loan developed for senior homeowners, 62 and older.
“There are safe and appropriate ways for senior homeowners to use housing wealth to augment their retirement needs, and our expert panel aims to help them gain a better understanding of their options,” explained Downey.
