(Default = last month's national average.) Alternatively, enter your credit score range to see an interest rate estimate.
The growth is not interest borrowers are earning. There is no growth in funds already used as they are accruing interest, so they do not result in an increase in the amount available to borrowers. You must remember that the funds only grow on the unused portion of the line. Any funds borrowed would no longer be included in the growth calculation. If the funds were not used in the following year, the growth would be computed on the balance or $52,500. The next year you would have $52,500 available.
If you have $50,000 left on the line that you did not use and therefore did not accrue that 5%, that $2,500 (5% of $50,000) is then added to the line of credit and is available to you in an increased line amount.
5% the total interest and MIP that would accrue on the funds is 5%.
Growth Rate Example:Į.g., if your interest rate is 4.5% and the MIP is. For any funds remaining in the line of credit, the line grows at a rate equal to the interest and mortgage insurance premium (MIP) that would be accruing on those remaining funds for as long as they remain unused. The credit line growth rate is based on the unused portion of the line of credit. Older borrowers receive more money than do younger borrowers since with a shorter life expectancy, they are not liable to remain in the home as long and accrue as much interest on the home. In short, it is very difficult to publish Percentages or “Loan to Values” that are available simply because they change as the factors change. When considering jumbo or proprietary programs, those products often use the same considerations but are subject to the requirements of the investors who offer the programs rather than HUD numbers. Since borrowers can stay in their homes for life and never have to make a payment on the loan, the reverse loan calculator takes all these factors into consideration to determine the amount the borrower will receive in their Principal Limit, or maximum available loan amount. HUD uses the HECM calculator to determine benefits for each borrower that takes into consideration the ages of the borrowers, the interest rates at the time the loan is originated as well as the value of the home or the HUD lending limit whichever is less. The percentage of your home’s equity that is available to an individual for a reverse mortgage depends on several factors.
