Frequently Asked Questions
What are the eligibility requirements for a reverse mortgage in Lake Charles?
You must be at least 62 years old and own your home outright or have a low mortgage balance. The home must be your primary residence, and you must complete a HUD approved counseling session. Louisiana law requires the counselor to explain all loan terms and costs before you apply.
How does Louisiana law affect reverse mortgage proceeds?
Louisiana is a community property state, so both spouses must sign the loan documents if married. Proceeds from a reverse mortgage are generally not considered taxable income in Louisiana. However, interest on the loan is not deductible until you pay it back.
