By accessing this without having to move you can achieve the things you have always wanted to do. The Heartland Reverse Mortgage enables you to access the equity in your home without having to sell your property. So how does a reverse mortgage work? The Heartland Reverse Mortgageis designed to help you manage your financial requirements by accessing only what you need, as and when required. The amount you are able to borrow depends on a number of factors, such as your age and the value of your home. You are able to live in your home for as long as you wish, benefiting from any potential increase in property values. Making regular repayments is not necessary, although you are free to do so at any time. You will always retain ownership of your home. The Reverse Mortgage will become repayable when you sell your property, move into long-term care or pass away. Who can apply?

  2. Property Criteria Your home must be of a conventional build. It must also meet our minimum property value criteria and may be dependent on location. The property should be mortgage free. However, if there is a mortgage outstanding it must be repaid on settlement of the loan. As security for your loan, we must be the first and only mortgage registered on title. This means you will be unable to take out an additional mortgage from another lender using your home as security. How much can you borrow? The following table depicts the maximum percentage of your home’s value you can borrow. The percentage is based on the age of the youngest borrower minus 45, and the ages below are shown as examples. Maximum % of home's value available Age of youngest borrower 60 15% 65 20% 70 25% 75 30% 80 35% 85 40% 90 45% If the security property is an Investment Property or Holiday Home, the maximum amount available is reduced by 10%. What can you do with the money? A Heartland Reverse Mortgage is yours for you to do whatever you choose.
