Reverse Mortgages in KS: FAQs
Which properties in Kansas qualify for a reverse mortgage?
You may qualify for a reverse mortgage in Kansas if you own substantial equity in a single-family home, townhome, FHA-approved condominium, or two- to four-unit property. The property must be your primary residence, so vacation homes are ineligible.
What if I still have an existing mortgage?
Pending that you own substantial equity in the home and meet all eligibility criteria, you can still qualify for a KS reverse mortgage. A portion of the loan proceeds will first be used to settle the remainder of your existing mortgage, then you can spend the leftover funds however you like.
Are there monthly payments required on a KS reverse mortgage?
No, borrowers are not required to make payments toward the reverse mortgage balance or interest until the loan reaches maturity. However, you’ll need to keep up with property taxes, mortgage insurance, and home maintenance as needed.
