Basic Senior Reverse Mortgage Facts:

In a Senior Reverse Mortgage, the home owner makes no payments and all interest is added to the lien on the property.

If a property has increased in value after a Senior Reverse Mortgage is taken out, it is possible to acquire a second (or third) reverse mortgage over the increased equity in the home.
