The Reverse Mortgage Advantage - for the "house rich and cash poor", 2007-09-05
Reverse mortgage is a loan made to a home owner-age 62 or older- against the equity in the home. It may be suitable for those who have much equity in their own home, want to live in the home until their death, and need cash to do this. But, they are also costly mortgages. This book is recommended for anyone considering this product either for one's self of for a parent. With lots of information and definitions, it describes what is out there and where to get more information. The book features the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) which is insured by the federal government, but also describes several "proprietary" products. The book goes well beyond its title and provides useful knowledge and suggestions for any senior who must manage limited resources. The author has considerable knowledge but tends to jump from topic to topic, often returning to points he made earlier. As a result, it is hard to find something in the book without reading the whole book. There are also occasional, though minor, mistakes. For example, 0.5 per cent is 50 "basis points" and not 5. You will be better prepared to consider and evaluate reverse mortgages after reading this book.

Deja Vu, 2006-10-01
I read Reverse Mortgages For Dummies a few months ago and, as an avid comparison shopper, wanted to make sure I had gotten the best book out there. When I picked up The Reverse Mortgage Advantage I had a sense of deja vu ... this is so much like the dummies book I thought it must have been written by the same author. It's not that this isn't a good book ... it's just that I already read it in the form of the dummies book. For a few bucks less and a more originality, I'll stick with the dummies version.

This is the one to buy, 2006-08-11
This is a great little book -- it not only offers solid information, but it does so by way of easy-to-understand illustrations recounted with good humor. I gave the book to my parents, who are considering a reverse mortgage, and they said it helped them to understand their options far better than the consultant to whom they'd been talking and the seminar through which they'd attempted to stay awake.
