4 2/12/2015 Loan Costs No hidden fees all costs disclosed to you up front! Most fees can be financed into the loan = no out-of-pocket lender costs 1 Loan origination fees capped by HUD Appraisal, credit report, title and escrow fees FHA mortgage insurance premium (MIP) 1 Except for HUD Counseling 6 Safeguards Federal Housing Administration (FHA) Insured HECM loans are FHA insured. You are always protected against lender insolvency and can expect to receive your proceeds. Mandatory Mortgage Insurance HECM loans are required by U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to charge a mandatory mortgage insurance. This insurance protects the borrower and their heirs in the event the loan balance is higher than the home s value at the time of sale. Independent Counseling Independent counselors which are approved by HUD provide you with objective information, and help you understand the process. Capped Interest Rates If your loan has an adjustable interest rate, there is a limit on how much some interest rates can change during a specific period of time. Full Disclosure of Costs Lenders are required to disclose your estimated loan costs and fees upfront through a Good Faith Estimate (GFE). 7 Types of Loans HECM Loan The HECM is available as either an adjustable- or fixed-rate loan. With the adjustable rate, the rate is adjusted monthly based on the LIBOR (London Inter Bank Offered Rate). The fixed-rate HECM maintains the same interest rate over the life of the loan. HECM for Purchase Loan The HECM for Purchase can help homeowners buy their next home without having to make monthly mortgage payments. This loan enables homeowners to use the equity from the sale of a previous residence to buy their next primary home in one transaction. Regardless of how long you live in the home or what happens to your home s value, you only make one, initial investment (down payment) towards the purchase. 8 3

5 2/12/2015 Disbursement Options With a fixed-rate HECM loan, you can receive the cash in a lump sum. With an adjustable-rate HECM loan, you can select: Tenure Term Line of Credit Lump Sum Modified Tenure Modified Term The funds available to you may be restricted for the first 12 months after loan closing, due to HECM requirements.
