What Is a Reverse Mortgage?

A reverse mortgage is a loan secured against your home that lets you convert a portion of your home's value into tax-free cash — without selling, without moving, and without making monthly payments.

Available to Canadian homeowners aged 55 and older, it's a way to access the equity you've spent a lifetime building — on your own terms, at your own pace.

Many families find it helpful to explore this option together. We welcome your adult children, your lawyer, or your financial advisor to any conversation.

No Monthly Payments Required

There are no mandatory monthly mortgage payments. The loan is repaid when you choose to sell, move, or when your estate settles — on your timeline.

Tax-Free Funds

Reverse mortgage advances are generally not taxable because they are loan proceeds — not income. They generally do not affect your Old Age Security (OAS) or Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) benefits. Your financial advisor can confirm how this applies to your situation.

Stay in the Home You Love

You continue living in your home, in the neighbourhood you know, close to the people who matter most — for as long as you choose.

You Remain the Homeowner

Your name stays on the title. The lender never owns your home. You — and your family — retain full ownership throughout.

Could a Reverse Mortgage Be Right for You?

The basic criteria are straightforward. If these apply to you, we'd be glad to have a conversation:

You are age 55 or older
You own a Canadian home
Your home is your primary residence
Your home has existing equity built up over the years

Questions We Hear Most Often

We believe in clear, honest answers — for you and for your family. Here are the questions that come up most in our conversations.

For Financial Advisors & Planners

A Tool Your Retired Clients May Not Know They Have

A reverse mortgage is not a product of last resort — it is a legitimate retirement planning tool. For clients who are asset-rich and cash-flow constrained, it can change the entire shape of their retirement plan.

Preserve the Investment Portfolio

Rather than drawing down a RRIF or non-registered account in a down market, clients can use home equity to bridge the gap — leaving investments intact to recover.

Eliminate Debt in Retirement

Clients carrying a HELOC, car loan, or credit card balances into retirement can consolidate and eliminate those payments in a single transaction, freeing up hundreds of dollars a month.

Fund Long-Term Care Costs

In-home care, accessibility renovations, and assisted living top-ups can be funded through monthly advances — without depleting savings or disrupting the retirement income plan.

Facilitate Intergenerational Wealth Transfer

Clients who want to help adult children with a down payment or education costs can do so now — while they are alive to see the impact — without touching their liquid assets.

Delay CPP and OAS

Home equity can bridge the income gap for clients who retire before 65 or 70, allowing them to defer CPP and OAS for a significantly higher lifetime benefit.

No Negative Equity Guarantee

All Canadian reverse mortgage lenders provide a no-negative-equity guarantee — clients will never owe more than the fair market value of their home at the time of repayment.

Refer a Client — We'll Handle the Rest

We work collaboratively with financial advisors, accountants, and estate planners across Canada. We'll provide a thorough, no-pressure consultation and keep you informed throughout. Your client's best interest is always the priority.
