Access Home Equity While Keeping Your First Mortgage
You’ve built equity in your home, and a reverse fixed second mortgage may help you put some of it to use. Eligible homeowners receive a lump sum with a fixed interest rate while keeping their existing first mortgage and its rate in place.
Whether you’re planning home improvements, covering a larger expense, or creating a financial cushion, this option doesn’t add a required monthly principal and interest payment on the reverse mortgage while loan requirements are met.
Your first mortgage payments continue, along with property taxes, insurance, applicable HOA fees, and home maintenance. The home must remain your primary residence. Interest and fees are added to the reverse mortgage balance over time, and the loan must eventually be repaid. This proprietary program is not FHA insured.
At Select Home Loans, we’re here to help you understand your options and decide whether this approach fits your life.

Start with what you have in mind. We’ll take time to understand your plans, review your current mortgage, and help you explore the funds that may be available based on your age, home value, and existing loan balance.
Together, we’ll look at estimated proceeds, interest rates, closing costs, and how the agreement affects your remaining equity over time. We’ll also explain when repayment is required and help you consider how that fits your longer term plans.
From preparing documents to arranging required independent counseling, we’ll guide you through each step and coordinate with your lending partner. You’ll have someone to answer your questions, explain the details, and give you room to decide at your own pace.
