You must be at least 62 years old and own your home outright or have a low mortgage balance. The property must be your primary residence and meet HUD property standards. Connecticut law does not add extra age or income requirements beyond federal HUD rules.
How does Connecticut law affect reverse mortgage proceeds?
Connecticut does not tax reverse mortgage proceeds as income. However, you must continue to pay property taxes and homeowners insurance. If you fail to pay these, the loan may become due. Connecticut also requires lenders to provide a list of approved housing counseling agencies.
What happens to the reverse mortgage when the borrower dies or moves out in Connecticut?
The loan becomes due when the last borrower dies, sells the home, or permanently moves out. Heirs have 30 days to decide to pay off the loan or sell the home. Connecticut law allows a 12 month extension for heirs to settle the estate without foreclosure.
