| I don't believe so. RM's are for 1 to 4 unit residential properties as far as I know. |

Non-FHA reverse lenders....? Not sure if that even exists. There are a few private programs such as the equitykey mentioned above, but I don't really believe in that program, or those like it. Basically the borrowers will be agreeing to split the equity earned on the property from time of deal closed until they move, sell or die, which could end up being a SUBSTANTIAL charge.......YIKES. |

It doesn't work like that. The homeowners would be sharing a portion of the "future" equity with the investor, not the "current" equity. And there aren't any fees or debt associated with the option, and they can move and rent the residence without the agreement ending, so in many instances it provides a better solution then a Reverse Mortgage. |

I think you misread wht I wrote "split the equity on the property from time of deal closed until they move, sell or die" A big complaint about these RM's is that they are expensive... the housing market WILL bounce back, it always does, if your borrower lives in the home another 15+ years and the home appreaciate by 100k, that's a 50K cost. Most people see their home as an investment, so why split that investment with a bank when you can avoid it? I'm sure these programs provide a solution to a select group of people but I wouldn't pitch this equity sharing before a reverse. In some cases it might make sense, but I would explore the RM first.

Equitykey isn't for everyone and often I use it as a last resort but if you look at the scenario this applicant would receive $97,500 of which he/she can payoff most of their existing mortgage and have their rental income on autopilot.
The only EK we may be doing this month is for a $4Million mixed use commercial deal (owes 650k). This one has just enough to payoff their mortgage as well, and since they are protected on all current equity and still keep 50% of future appreciation it's a win/win for the family. 99% of my business are HECM's but the program is good to have in your tool box for those who cannot qualify for the reverse.
I'm also allowed to pay 1% of property value for referrals and since this isn't considered even a loan it bypasses rspa

That last part about referrals fees is intereseting, must be a gray area for now 
I understand the EK somewhat, and I'm sure it is useful in certain situations such as this with a funny property type, but from what I understand the borrower must be a non smoker, never had any serious disease, pass a health check and also qualify for a life insurance policy? I also heard that should EK choose to acquire the property at the end of the agreed term that they charge an additional "aqcuisition cost" which is equal to the cost to sell it, up to 8% of the fair market value at the time. So all-in-all they get a 50-50 split on gained equity PLUS 8%....and people think HECM's are expensive?  |

| Your are thinking of the 15yr prepayment penalty which is charged if they decide to payoff the cloud on title (performance deed) prior to settlement of estate, it's not a charge in addition. |
