A reverse mortgage lets a homeowner aged 55 or older convert part of their home equity into tax-free cash, without monthly mortgage payments and without leaving the home. The loan and its interest are repaid later — when the home is sold, when you move, or through your estate. It’s a significant decision with real trade-offs, and my team and I believe in walking through it slowly, honestly, and with no pressure either way.
How a reverse mortgage works
You borrow against the equity you’ve built, and the funds come to you tax-free as a lump sum, regular advances, or a mix of both. Because there are no required monthly payments, the interest is added to the balance over time. You stay on title as the owner, and the loan is settled down the road from the home’s value. How much you can access depends on your age, your home, and its location and value.
Where it can help, and where it can’t
A reverse mortgage can ease real pressure: supplementing retirement income, covering health or home-care costs, helping family, or clearing other debt so monthly cash flow improves. It isn’t right for everyone, though. Because interest compounds, it reduces the equity left in the estate, so it deserves a careful family conversation. My team and I will tell you plainly when another option — downsizing, a regular refinance, a line of credit — would serve you better.

Reverse Mortgages: common questions
Who qualifies for a reverse mortgage?
Reverse mortgages in Canada are for homeowners aged 55 and older. Every person on the home's title must meet the age requirement, and the amount available depends on age, the home, and its value.
Do I have to make payments on a reverse mortgage?
No monthly payments are required. The loan, plus accrued interest, is repaid when you sell the home, move out, or through your estate. You can make voluntary payments if you wish.
Will I still own my home?
Yes. You stay on title and remain the owner. The lender registers a charge against the home, the same as any mortgage, but you keep ownership and the right to live there.
