What Is a Reverse Mortgage? 

🔍 How Does a Reverse Mortgage Work?

Unlike a traditional loan, you don’t make regular repayments. Instead:

  • You borrow against your home equity
  • Interest compounds over time
  • The loan is repaid when you sell, move out, or pass away

You can take the funds as a lump sumregular income, or line of credit—or a mix of all three.

🧓 Who Is Eligible?

  • Australian homeowners aged 60+
  • Must own the home outright or have significant equity
  • Some lenders have postcode or property value restrictions

✅ Benefits of Reverse Mortgages

  • Stay in your home while accessing funds
  • No mandatory repayments while living there
  • Use equity for aged care, travel, or living costs

⚠️ Considerations Before You Apply

  • Interest compounds, reducing your future equity
  • May affect Age Pension eligibility
  • Not all lenders offer reverse mortgages
  • You’ll need to repay the loan from your estate or sale proceeds
