Can my heirs refinance the Reverse Mortgage to a regular mortgage?

American Advisors Group | Will Rae
"Absolutely they can. Your heirs can pay off the existing reverse mortgage balance with other available funds, or obtain a traditional mortgage to pay off the balance and not sell the home. If you make the decision to sell or leave your property, your loan will then become due. If your children want to buy your home and let you stay in it, they the choice to take out a traditional mortgage, refinance, or find the money by other means to cover your loan. That way they can buy the property, and you can stay in your home, even after taking out a reverse mortgage. Once the original loan amount plus interest and fees has been paid back, you and your family will benefit from the remaining equity that will be returned to you on a tax free basis.
