Reverse Mortgage FAQs for Hawaiʻi Homeowners
1. What is a reverse mortgage in Hawaiʻi?
A reverse mortgage in Hawaiʻi (HECM) is a federally insured loan for homeowners age 62+ that lets you access part of your home equity without monthly mortgage payments. You keep ownership and can stay in your home as long as loan requirements are met.
2. Will my children still inherit my Hawaiʻi home?
Yes. Your home still belongs to you or your estate. When the loan ends, your heirs can either keep the home, refinance it, or sell it. Our AI tools can show how much equity may remain for ʻohana.
3. Do I have to make monthly payments?
No monthly mortgage payments are required with a Hawaii reverse mortgage as long as you live in the home, maintain it, and keep taxes and insurance current.
4. Can condos or leasehold homes qualify in Hawaiʻi?
Many do. Condo projects must be FHA-approved, and leasehold homes need qualifying lease terms. Our AI estimator checks HECM Hawaiʻi eligibility automatically.
5. How much can I get from a reverse mortgage in Hawaiʻi?
Your available funds depend on your:
- Age
- Home value
- Interest rates
- Remaining mortgage balance
- HECM loan limits
Because Hawaiʻi home values are higher than average, many kupuna qualify for larger benefit amounts.
6. Will I lose my home with a reverse mortgage?
No. You retain full ownership and can stay in your home as long as you:
- Live in it as your primary residence
- Maintain the property
- Pay taxes & insurance
- Follow loan terms
HECM loans include strong protections for seniors.
7. How does a reverse mortgage help with aging in place in Hawaiʻi?
A reverse mortgage can provide funds for:
- Everyday living expenses
- Medical or caregiving costs
- In-home care
- Home safety upgrades
- Reducing financial stress
This helps kupuna remain at home, even with Hawaiʻi’s high cost of living.
8. Will a reverse mortgage affect my Social Security or Medicare?
No. Reverse mortgage proceeds do not count as taxable income, so Social Security and Medicare are unaffected. Some needs-based benefits (like SSI or Medicaid) may require planning — always check with an advisor.
9. What happens when the homeowner passes away or moves out?
The loan becomes due when the last borrower permanently leaves the home. Your ʻohana can:
- Repay the balance and keep the home
- Refinance
- Sell the home
- Walk away if the home is worth less (non-recourse protection)
Your family is never responsible for paying more than the home’s value.
10. How do I know if a reverse mortgage is right for me or my parents?
Our AI Reverse Mortgage Hawaiʻi tools offer a personalized, easy-to-understand estimate showing:
- Eligibility
- Available equity
- Monthly or line-of-credit options
- Remaining equity for heirs
- Long-term projections
This helps you make a confident decision with your ʻohana.
