Finance of America Reverse Reviews

Running low on money and still having good health, I'm not willing to go to the poor house. The presentation from Finance of America Reverse was understandable than some of the others. Plus, the printout of the information they sent was legible. Dealing with the loan officer was excellent through the whole course of events. We didn’t comprehend the totality but that wasn’t their fault and I got them rectified. Overall, it was a very good experience. The lady we dealt with was good, thorough and had good follow-up. I sought good explanations of everything.

Several years ago, I had applied for a reverse mortgage with Finance of America Reverse and I went back to them several years later after the housing went up. I'm 80 years old and I live through my monthly income, so I don’t wanna pay any more house payments. My interaction with the fellow, Josh, was very good. He was very attentive and he went out of his way. The problem came in with the underwriters not understanding bank terminology. That was very upsetting because I have a checking account, and years ago I put my minor children as trustees on the checking account because they were minors. Bank of America wouldn't write a letter but they confirmed it on the phone that the kids have no access to my checking account.

I felt a reverse mortgage was the only way I could handle keeping the house. I talked to several companies and the loan officer from Finance of America Reverse Mortgage explained everything, so I can understand it, and I decided to give it a try. I didn’t have any problems, all my questions were answered, so it was great. And it was real quick. It just took a couple of months for the whole thing to take effect. It was so great that I would do it again if I had to.

Our age, desire to do some improvement to the home and pay off credit cards, all of that makes reverse mortgage attractive. We did an internet search and quickly developed a relationship with the front office guy that we contacted, Travis. He was good and helpful. He was a good listener and very responsive. All of the information we needed was provided quickly and without any added nonsense. We quickly got to the issue, dealt with it and were able to make a decision.

I had a friend that told me about Finance of America Reverse. I was really low on money and just getting social security and raising my grandson. I didn't want to lose my home. I'm retired now so it was the best thing for me. We got an ad in the mail so I gave them a call and went along with that. They worked fast, did a great job and it worked out really well. Their guidance was very organized and was done really well. I also had a wonderful interaction with the loan officer. I am so thankful that there's a program out there like this for elderly people that can sustain their homes. It's wonderful, it's a blessing and it was a relief. I'm very happy with my experience with Finance of America Reverse.

I looked into reverse mortgage and thought it was a good idea. I spoke with the loan officer from Finance of America Reverse, Toby, and he told me about the programs and explained it very well. He was really good, attentive and got back with me immediately when I left a message if he wasn’t there to answer the phone. I was treated very well. I feel that they’re a very honest company and they’re quick to process the reverse mortgage. I would recommend them to others if they decide to go this way.

My husband and I are 83 and 85 and we had some things that we knew we would be facing financially down the road without available funds to take care of them. We then thought of doing a reverse mortgage. We talked to William from Finance of America Reverse and he was very knowledgeable and patient and anything that we didn't understand, he was very good about explaining it to us and kept us posted about anything that was coming up.

I was trying to find someone who would listen to me and when I sent my information in to Finance of America Reverse, Miranda called me back and it was great. Everybody else was going through a whole lot of rigmaroles, but she greeted me with a personal feeling, that 'look, we can help you', and then she asked about a few things they got to know. That was a good approach. Even when it came to the people who were going to come out here, the gentlemen went through how the process would work. Who would come first, then the appraisers and so on. It was less work. Even with my wife, when we're on the phone, they we're trying to get some information, bank and all that stuff. It was good.

Finance of America Reverse was referred by a friend of mine. Their loan officer and I had open communication. He explained everything to me and always returned my calls. I had a very great interaction with him. I'd recommend Finance of America Reverse.

We got old, had a mortgage and didn’t wanna make any mortgage payments right now until we decide to sell it. We were looking to do a reverse mortgage and Finance of America Reverse was one of the ones we've called. I thought it was gonna be a set rate but then it turned out to be a variable rate and I didn’t like that. It was a long-drawn-out deal and part of it was the bank. They didn’t get things to us in time and so we had to start all over again. We had to pay twice for the appraisal. It wasn’t a good and nice deal.

I needed to do some repairs on my home and I wanted to have a little nest egg so I went with a reverse mortgage. I really liked Finance of America Reverse Inc.'s salesman so I went with them. I had good rapport with my loan officer. They've just been wonderful to me. My experience has been excellent.

I had a previous loan with Finance of America Reverse so I took the same one. The nice lady who I worked with was helpful. My interactions with her were all very pleasant and I was educated perfectly. Though the loan raised the interest way up, it helped out because I paid off the old loan and got some additional cash that we needed.

Choosing a reverse mortgage helped a lot to take some pressure off. Then Finance of America Reverse educated me before I accepted their counseling. They helped me to fully understand what I didn’t know to start with. They answered my questions and have been very helpful and supportive all through the process. I liked the lady I talked to and I seemed to connect with her. She calls me every month to know that she's there if I need anything. It's been great and pleasant.

Everybody is kind of afraid about this reverse mortgage, how they had scams years ago. But the one I spoke with at Finance of America Reverse, Nicole first told me all about the process and then a counselor called me. I had a lot of issues to deal with and Nicole went through everything. At one point, I told her, "Maybe I’m just gonna go ahead and forget about this," and she said, “Let’s just try a little bit more.” And after I receive the money, I could go ahead and get my electricity done and a couple of different issues on the house. She was very, very nice. She’s an asset to that company. It really went smooth for me. I tried to pass it off to my friends. A couple of them said they're gonna wait ‘till next year but I said they better do it now because the financing might be different, they'll never know. I’m amazed that people don’t take advantage of this.

I wanted to take this opportunity to let everyone know that we are so glad that we found FAR and met William **. During the saddest time in my life, after dad just passed away and left my mom with the uncertainties of her daily expenses and finances, William and FAR came to our rescue. We heard of reverse mortgages and knew that this could be our solution by eliminating her mortgage payments completely. I shopped around not realizing that the competitors were charging nearly $30K worth of fees that FAR simply did NOT. Saving us a lot!!! It was also a nice bonus to know FAR would be keeping the loan and not selling off the loan to any other lenders.

We had a small balance of $51,000 on our mortgage. But our payment is $3,500 a month. It was from the prior mortgage company 15 years ago and we couldn’t pay it monthly anymore. I made calls and Finance of America Reverse were the first to call back. They worked with me with everything they were supposed to do but I was pretty set in exactly with what I wanted to do. The girl I talked with on the phone all the time was very good. But after the closing, she was out of the picture. I pay less than $600 a month that covers the mortgage payment without it growing.

I heard about reverse mortgage from someone but it turned out they wanted so many things done. I went to Finance of America Reverse and they didn’t have all that peripheral activity. The interaction with them has been friendly and positive. The loan officer gave me all the information I needed to get going and she’s absolutely wonderful. I sold my house at the last minute yesterday. I took some extra funds to get everything moving and that came in handy. They got everything we needed right on time for the closing agent, which was awesome, including the new payoff amount. Everything was just great.

My husband passed away three years ago, and I decided it was just time to pay the payments and stay alive. I can't decide if I want to stay at our house or not. If I stay there, I could sell it and just pay off the loan. The problem is that I don’t know if I'm happy there or not anymore. It's just a sad thing for me. My husband and I bought the house with a two-income deal. It's awful. It was going to be $1,500 house payment and $50,000 a year. I just couldn’t do it. I was misled in the beginning because I thought I was going get $14,000 and I only ended up with $10,000. I planned to go on vacation, and since it only ended up being $10,000, I decided that I just wouldn't go.

I submitted an online request and Finance of America Reverse was one of the first to respond back to me. Out of the responses I received, I preferred the way that they presented it. The person who called me from the company took the time to listen to my situation to decide if he might be able to offer a product that would serve my need which is reverse mortgage. Based on that conversation, he was very prompt in getting back with me with more information. Plus, there was confidence in his voice. The most important thing is to make sure that one really understands the process and has a clear understanding of the product they’re offering. The manager of the person I dealt with the entire time presented the product as we were entering the final stages slightly different than the person that I was working with. And it was not the way it went down. So I had a little surprise right at the very end.

My application for a reverse mortgage with William as my reverse mortgage specialist was a painless procedure. With his help I was able to complete the application and reach the closing in a matter of days. All of the folks I dealt with from the very start to the closing were very professional and personable. I would recommend William and Finance of America LLC to anyone interested in a reverse mortgage.

I had a home equity loan. I didn't read the fine print when I first took it out and after 10 years, they told me to pay it back. I said I'll go to some place else and ended up with Finance of America Reverse. They did a good job. Their rep was available when I tried to get a hold him. He explained and answered all of my questions. I didn't have any problems with any of that, so it went pretty smoothly. He kept the whole thing moving.

We have no children and we’re all in our 70’s so we got a reverse mortgage with Finance of America. That's $720 we wanted to pay and that really makes a big difference. The man who did the paperwork for us was very good. It was the easiest thing I ever did. Finance of America have been very nice. They send me notices all the time and how much money I still got to come. It's been very good and I’ve been very satisfied.

I'm 78 years old. I had a wife to attend to and Finance of America Reverse were very easy to deal with and honest. I struggled for years and I got my credit land where I could do it. The loan officer was nice and he was on top of the job. During the process, he would call and stay in touch. That impressed me and everything has turned out good.

We downsized and I wanted to get to where we didn’t have any mortgage. So I took the equity that we had on a previous realtor to buy the house we’re in now. Then took out the reverse mortgage just to fill in when we needed it. With Finance of America Reverse, I could have a monthly statement if I want. Also, I can either take a lump sum or just take what I need. The people I worked with were friendly and knowledgeable. The guidance I got from them was very good and thorough. If anybody wants a reverse mortgage, I’d certainly recommend Finance of America Reverse because it was a very good experience. The only thing I had objections to was all the hoops you had to go through in order to get approved as far as going to this place to get educated and go to another place to do something else. There’s a lot more happening than just going to the bank and getting a loan.

I first read about the agent I dealt with, who I thought was in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and that's why I contacted her. I had her phone number and her work number and I had day-by-day contact with her. But later I learned that she was in California. Of course I lived 36 years in California, so I learned a lot about the program there. And then later on, I dealt with a lady in New York as well. It's a finance institution that handled the thing. Both ladies were very cordial and helpful. And then I went through the whole procedure to learn what mortgage it was and how it would affect me, and I decided to go ahead and do it.

I need to do some repairs to my home and Finance of America Reverse was lesser of all the evils that are out there. However, the experience was not very pleasant. I dealt with five or six companies over about 14 months trying to get somewhere. I feel like the consumer is being taken advantage of in this program. I dealt with about eight loan officers. The very first one was really good but then either she got fired or she left that company. Then I got a hold of another one who really didn't want to deal with me because I kept asking the very pertinent questions like what is the final interest rate that I'm going to be charged and every one of those loan officers say, "Oh it's fixed, it is the exact same number at every place" and it was not.

We're both in the 60's, we needed to make a difference and not having the mortgage payment is helping us so much. A reverse mortgage is a tough process to go through. But the lady that took care of our reverse mortgage stayed with us through the whole process. She called and helped us when we ran into some roadblocks. She’d also call us at 8:00 at night and would ask how we're doing. She became like a family friend and you don’t get that in corporate America today.

My retirement fund is running low so I looked into getting a reverse mortgage. I studied quite a while before I decided to do this. I’m a one-on-one person and the calls that I got were for people out in California, New York, and the only one that called was the lady from Tulsa. So I drove up from Oklahoma City to speak to her in person. The interactions with the loan officer have been very good. We tried to do everything over the phone and through the mail. But I felt like I needed to be face to face with the people that’s doing all this. You could ask questions and you could watch the expression on their face and find out whether they’re actually telling you the truth. I found out that she was doing 99%. So I just decided to go with Finance of America.

We liked where we're at and we couldn't replace our home. It's also hard to find a place that has 5 acres. Then, we didn't want to move and to sell so we chose a reverse mortgage. When I filled in the blanks to get a quote, Linda from Finance of America Reverse was the first that answered it right away. She mailed me all the materials within a day. I had other five people contact me and everybody was good. Everybody else came in with the same price, except one guy who was trying to screw us. Linda was the first and I didn't see any reason to go any further and we really appreciate it.

We had been thinking about getting a reverse mortgage for quite some time but then we were not sure and comfortable with it so we didn't move forward. Then we got a call from Finance of America. The lady said that they were waiving the closing costs at that particular time and that was a big thing for us. She did a great job and understood any hesitation that we had. She always answered our questions thoroughly and to our expectations and helped us to feel comfortable about the decision to move forward with Finance of America. They made everything run smoothly and painlessly.

The reverse mortgage is for my aunt Annabel and it was a perfect situation for her because she owns the house. She was hard on money and the house would be sold when she passes as she has no children to leave it to. The rep we worked with didn't let us slack off and she offered solutions when we were confused on how to get something accomplished. The guidance we received from Finance of America was excellent and it took me a while to convince my aunt that it was good, but now she's happy that she did it. I would definitely recommend it to anybody that had a situation that wanted it.

I Googled Finance of America Reverse then I started talking to someone and she really knew what she was talking about and I'm like, "This is what I really need to do." I could refinance and get off from under the monthly payment and have everything come out, my insurance and taxes and have things taken care of for me. I called Carolyn and we hit it off. She explained to me what was happening but then there was something on my credit and I'd be crying. She was so patient with me because there was always something going on like the furnace went out and I'm crying to her, I need to get it done. She was remarkable in helping me get everything straightened out.

I knew somebody else that did reverse mortgage. The hotel that I was working for at that time was closing, so I wasn't going to be working steady. I was figuring that I'd look into it to see what was what. I looked into it a couple of years prior with another company. They said that it wasn’t for me yet at that time. So I waited a couple of years and got it done through Finance of America Reverse. My loan officer was great. There was somebody else at the underwriting office that was a real pain because, every time they asked for something, they had it already and they just kept on holding things up. It got to the point where I said, “You know what? This is it. We're done.” I said, “I don’t care if you fund it or you don’t fund it.” But other than that, everything's good.

Since my husband died, I didn’t have enough money to live comfortably and pay my bills. So I decided to go with the reverse mortgage. Andrew was the person I talked to from Finance of America Reverse and he was sweet and friendly. I have never had anybody treat me any nicer.

I got a letter in the mail saying that because of the price increase of the value of the house, my interest should go up. I'm 75, a widow, and I didn't know what I could do. But I had to figure out what I can do, so I called Finance of America Reverse and a very nice man answered and it worked out fine. I had a reverse mortgage but they gave me $20,000 more than I had before. The loan officer was wonderful. He called me up and helped me through everything. He went out of his way to get the extra things. His secretary also helped and then another person called me up and they made all the arrangements. They went out of the way to call people for me, which I didn't even know I was supposed to call. At first, I was leery over the phone because you hear about all these scams. But they bent over backwards to appease my leeriness and I couldn't have felt more confident over the phone. The staff that they hire is excellent.

It was really good with the loan officer at Finance of America Reverse. He didn’t try to make it too flowery or too great and explained things really well to me in a way I could understand them. He was also very consistent about calling me every week, letting me know what was going on and what he thought might happen.

A reverse mortgage would allow me to retire and Finance of America Reverse specializes in that. They answered the questions that I asked without any hesitations and they knew what they were talking about. The loan officer first gave me the information and told me the potential. Then, he walked me through it step by step and did most of the work for me so it was easy. I received excellent guidance. They took care of it and I didn't have to have any expertise or any other knowledge. Working with them has been wonderful. There were no repercussions, no questions, and no problems. They were consistent and it didn't take very long. We got it done in a month and a half.

I took an early retirement and then I was 62. I got Finance of America Reverse's number online and reached out to them. Working with the loan officer was very good, professional and quick, and she’s very knowledgeable. Also, their guidance was good because I had no information before. It's been good, so far, and I’m satisfied with both the cost and quality. It's been an excellent experience and I would recommend them to anybody.

Somebody mentioned using a reverse mortgage so I decided to look into it. I was browsing through the different companies and Finance of America Reverse popped up so I went with it. The loan officers were very good and my experience with them went well. I highly recommend Finance of America Reverse.

The Finance of America Reverse representative I worked with was very nice and he did everything when the forms came. The experience was okay, but he’s trying to make a sales call too. Sometimes I got the feeling that he was pressuring me when I needed to have some time to think. Also, when I asked him questions, I got vague answers. I started out with $70,000 in December that they bought and I owed $94,000 or $93,000. I know there's $10,000 for fees, a couple of thousand in taxes and around $3,000 that was dispersed to me, but it seemed like $30,000 in the course of six months.

Due to my age, I chose a reverse mortgage as part of my retirement plan and I got the most information from Finance of America Reverse. They knew what they were talking about and I've had comfortable interactions with their loan officer.

My experience with Finance of America Reverse was fine and I enjoyed it. My health isn't as good as it used to be. I was having to stop working before I was ready to and my mortgage was a little bit outstanding. I then decided to eliminate the mortgage so life would be a little easier. The representative that we were speaking with at Finance of America Reverse was bright and bubbly. We have talked to several different companies and we liked the way she presented herself and her company. We told her what our needs and concerns were. She jumped on them immediately and took care of everything as we requested.

Saving $900 a month on the house using a reverse mortgage was a good deal. I didn't consider it for a while and when I was gonna work a little bit longer to get my equity up, Finance of America Reverse worked with me on a deal and so I was able to get a close on it. When they told me they were gonna do something, they did it and I appreciated that. The process was a grind, but I expected it to be. They gave excellent guidance and everything was above board and straightforward. They were good people and I enjoyed them.

Finance of America Reverse process went really well. Their loan officer was informative, nice and took care of things that we needed to do. He explained everything really well. He was also really pleasant and worked with us really good. The timeframe was reasonable. They had estimated about four or five months but we got it done in about three months which was really quick.

I wanted a new truck and through FInance of America Reverse I was able to get one. Then I will have to wait until next year and see what else I buy. The guy from Finance of America was more personable compared to those from other companies. We just talked other things besides reverse mortgage. My situation was a little bit on the strange side because I have an ex-wife and she's still on my deed so we had problems. The process took a little bit longer than normal. But all things given, it worked out. It wasn't my greatest experience but it wasn't bad. It would have been better if it did not take so long and cost so much.

Due to my financial situation at the time, I got a reverse mortgage as part of my retirement plan. And Finance of America Reverse were the best that everyone knew about. I got as much information from all of them as I could and at least one other company claimed to offer just as good or better reverse mortgage as Finance of America but they dropped the ball. They wouldn't respond to my inquiry and a month later, I made contact again but they were inconsistent.

My experience with Finance of America has been pretty good though it started out a little on the rough side. They couldn't get their ducks in a row. I had another little house on my yard that I built for my dad in 1999. And the people who set it up and were supposed to record in on the tax thing didn't record it. And then they decided that because it was a completed house, they couldn't do the reverse mortgage. So, I went through that for a bit to convert it to a storage house. And then, they went back and forth with it.

There was somebody else I was doing reverse mortgage with that seemed to lag and took their time but Finance of America Reverse answered me quickly by getting back with me. They seemed to be interested so, I decided to go with them. I wanted to get money to do remodeling. The money I got wasn’t anywhere near enough, but I got what I got to try and help straighten up my finances.

I talked to two different companies and Finance of America Reverse was the one that wanted to go forward with me. The guidance I received from them was super. Their rep, Josh, led me every step of the way. He was straightforward and easy to get a hold of. Finance of America did a superb job and helped me manage everything from start to finish. It was a great experience with them. Whenever something came up, they were willing to look at it and go through it and made sure everything was going the right way.

I did a reverse mortgage with Finance of America because I needed to fix my house. I liked the way their rep explained things to me. He explained how I could get that money because on what income I get, there's no way I could have done anything. He said that a reverse mortgage would help me and I could do what I had to do to the house and have a little extra money.

Everything went fine and the whole process going with Finance of America Reverse went smoothly. Their people were polite and seemed to try to answer our questions. I have recommended them to a friend.

Andrew explained all my options. He was very easy to talk to and answered all of my questions in language I could understand without overwhelming me. I was not sure if this was the right decision for me or not. He listened to me until I talked through it and came to my own decision that reverse mortgage was the right choice for me. Without Andrew I know this process would not have been so easy... I would have come out on the other side questioning myself. So I thank Andrew ** for all his help and dedication in making me feel I was his only client. I also want to mention, if I had a question he wasn't sure of he would ask until he found out the correct answer. I would not have gone with this company had it not been for Andrew. I had spoke to a few other Reverse mortgage companies but chose Finance of America Reverse… because I felt so comfortable with Andrew right off the bat.

We needed to do some repairs on our house and we've gotten all those done now so we wanted to use the reverse mortgage in order to be able to pay for those. I was in Hawaii and a girl that was out there told us about Finance of America Reverse. She gave us the name of the guy that did the reverse mortgages and we called him. We stayed with him the whole time. He walked us through the whole thing and explained everything in detail. I was the one that was always saying that I'm not ever gonna do this and he put me at ease. We realized that we could do it and so we did. It was a very good experience and I'd recommend them.

There was some work on the house and so I chose to have a reverse mortgage. Finance of America Reverse was the only one I knew. My husband got their number from the TV and I called it. Their rep sounded good when he told me about it and he seemed friendly and knew what he was talking about. I really enjoyed talking to their rep, Jessie, and I still could call him when I have any problems or questions. However, I didn't realize that we had to go through so much with people coming over and talking to us and then signing so many papers. We have to fill them out and then they asked us questions. But it was what they needed to do and it was fine after that. I have recommended them to a few people.

On retirement, our income got reduced and I needed to reduce the bills. We were paying over $2,000 per month and my income is not that high. By reducing the mortgage, we'll be able to pay all the bills. Finance of America Reverse gave us a plan that was very affordable. Their loan officer was very congenial and the guidance given was very nice. Overall, I was very satisfied.

With Finance of America, we had to go through a lot of stuff. One time, I didn't have this, the next time I didn't have that. The experience was okay, but it was a hassle. It seemed like I had to prove that I had money in the bank and what I proved to them wasn't good enough. I'd get something else and I'd get the bank to sign it. And it seemed like a lot of ridiculous things that were just common knowledge that anybody could look at and see. I started this in November and they sent me the paperwork but then it got pushed away. Then I called them and it took a couple of weeks after my birthday in January to do it.

I had tried to do a reverse mortgage a year ago, and the mortgage company wanted my tax return and I could not get it done. My husband had passed away and things were so complicated. I was looking online for options and I got to talk to Matt from Finance of America Reverse. I told him about my experience and he said he did not need my tax return. The fact that my house was paid for and they're taking the money out of that, there was no tax liability for me. That reassured me and that was the only reason I went with him. Everything went very well and I'm very satisfied.

My grandma was living in her house and she didn't want to move. It really needed some work and the reverse mortgage was just a way for her to get work done without getting into loans that she could not afford to handle. The agent from Finance of America Reverse himself made us choose them. He was very helpful and answered a lot of questions that we had. We also did counseling and gave us a better understanding of how the reverse mortgage works. They got the loan closed quickly. I would definitely recommend them.

I put in a request a couple of years ago and Finance of America was the first company to get back at me. The others didn't call me until a year later. Their loan officer was pretty good. But when I got the first loan notification, I thought it was something else. I realized it was a statement and not just some junk mail, but my wife was saying it's a different name and so I called him back. That's when he explained it and that I will be paying a different company. It could have been better explaining that upfront. But the reverser mortgage of Finance of America served me. The person I talked with was good in getting back to me.

We needed money for some of the remodeling we needed done and my sister said she had good service with Finance of America Reverse. Some of the documentation took a while because we had already moved out here. It wasn’t easy to get them from where we came from and it took about four or five months to clear. However, they were always nice to deal with, especially the broker. Our experience with them was very good. They went out of their way to try to do what they could to get everything going. They're reputable and explained everything in detail.

Everything's been excellent with Finance of America Reverse. They bent over backwards to make sure that we could make the deal because the deal was tight with what I owed on the house and what the house was appraised of. But they did everything in their power to make sure that they could get the deal going and they called me to give me a report on the progress. They really put first their customer primarily rather than their own profit.

I was helping my ex-wife with her refinancing paperwork and called the old company that was taking care of it for her before. They gave us the number for Finance of America Reverse. I worked with their representative and he was very helpful to send us everything to fill out and sign the application. He walked us along, so we knew exactly what we need to do. He advised on the things my ex-wife needed to take care of before she would qualify. He also advised a lot from insurance required and actually got it reduced from which he had before. Finance of America Reverse was very helpful with finalizing it. It took some time, but when all the paperwork got done and everything worked out, there weren’t any problems. It was a very good customer satisfaction from their part.

My wife has cancer and I need the money to pay some doctor bill so I used Finance of America Reverse. The representatives have been real nice and courteous if I have talked to them.

My house was completely paid off. My two children have their own houses and had no interest in owning my house. Getting a reverse mortgage seemed the thing to do. I had an extremely good experience and I'm very happy with the way things went with Finance of America. The loan officers I’ve worked with were extremely polite, very knowledgeable, helpful and knew exactly what they were doing. They had obviously a lot of experience doing this sort of thing and have made the entire process quite pleasant. I would definitely tell anybody asking about a reverse mortgage that Finance of America is the way to go.

I'm 82 years old and I could use some cash and I wanted to do some things to the house, so I got a reverse mortgage. I had one, I just increased it. The first time, it went through in days and everything was rosy. I went through AAG first and then Finance of America convinced me to change over to get it faster and they didn't. I had to do two evaluation appraisals, it was a mad house. When they called me and asked me to change to them, they told me that AAG had sold my original mortgage to them and they would probably do it anyway.

I needed money for some home improvements, so I checked into reverse mortgages. When I started hearing about it, I got really interested and I went ahead and did it. Finance of America Reverse made more sense to me and they treated me like a king. It was so easy to talk to them. I had a guy named Clarence and we talked almost all the time. When I pick up the phone to call him, he answers. There were a couple of times when I left a message, but as soon as he got it, he called me right back. Finance of America Reverse really helped out. I’m still living in my home like they said I would and I’m very satisfied.

My husband had passed away about 10 years and bills were going up, but the money coming in wasn’t helping, so I knew I had to do something quick. I applied for an equity loan from a bank here in Massachusetts but they refused me because I wasn’t bringing in enough money. My husband’s pension and his Social Security was my limit, and I couldn’t bring in my pension. It was at this point that I went on the computer and looked for a reverse mortgage. I happened to be filling something in to see how much it cost and to get that, I had to fill my name and number. Their representative, Tim, called me. After that, I had calls coming left and right and I just said I'm really busy.

I'm a single man without children and I'm retired so I didn't see any chance for me paying out the mortgage on my house so I went with reverse mortgage. I did try three other companies and it seemed like they couldn't do it. In contrast, Patrick from Finance of America Reverse kept telling me that they could do it and they did. He said that he could get it done in 2016. I signed up in October and there were only three months left then. It was quick how they did it. Also, the guidance I received from them was very good and they had a very positive attitude. Whenever we got the house appraised, he was very positive about it and whatever the price, it was more than enough to have it done. I was having trouble with that before, the house was not appraising for enough. It's really a gamble. I would recommend Finance of America Reverse because they were the ones who got it done and it went real fast.

I have a huge amount of equity in my house and I needed to get a hold of some of that. I'm also going into retirement so I chose to get a reverse mortgage and started working with Finance of America Reverse. When I start working with someone, I usually stay with them if they’re nice and thorough, and their loan officer has been very thorough and helpful. The guidance I received from him was good. He was maybe a little bit too full of himself but he is a salesperson. Since I closed, I haven’t heard from him. I would definitely recommend them but I know that a reverse mortgage isn’t for everyone.

I got scammed and I owed money on my credit cards because of it. Also, I am retired on a fixed income and I had to do something so I went to reverse mortgage. I saw an ad, it was that handsome Tom Selleck. I happen to like him. I figured if Tom was selling it, it couldn't be all bad. It was AAG that I saw that he does and I responded to that. It's been a pretty good experience with Finance of America Reverse and the loan officers were so nice to me.

I needed money and do updates on my home. I went to Finance of America Reverse and I loved their representative, Barb. She's a fabulous person, very conscientious, answered all my questions, and wasn’t pressuring me like some of the others were. Finance of America Reverse has been very efficient, courteous, and patient because I was ignorant to the whole process.

My father just passed away and my mother’s budget wasn’t allowing her to do what she needed done. I did some research online and found Finance of America Reverse. I left them a number, then their representative called me and I liked what I heard. He explained the process very well and I thought it was worth doing.

I researched a few places before I decided which company to go with. A friend of mine and I went over different things with the different lenders and she recommended Finance of America to me and they had a good rating. So I ended up picking them. I really like the first agent that was working with me. I was disappointed that they took her off the case with me and assigned me to somebody else. The first girl was right on top. She would return my calls right away, and if I had questions, she would answer. I found that the second agent was lackadaisical with everything. It was a little rough going with anybody who’s doing anything like this but at the end, it turned out to be good. You anticipate a lot. It’s just like going through a regular mortgage. You have a lot of anxiety about it and then questions. It’s a long process but it’s worth it. I would definitely recommend them to a friend.

I wanted some money and I saw that Finance of America Reverse had good ratings so I went with them. The load officer has done a good job. She kept working at it and getting everything straight so we can get it. We're done with both mortgage and I had a good experience with them.

Getting a reverse mortgage just seemed like the thing to do. The house isn't worth anything after I've gone, I don't have any heirs and the extra cash came in handy. Then I was just researching some of the companies and I got different things emailed then sent to me. Finance of America Reverse was the one I chose and they were very helpful. They were quick to send the information I needed. They explained everything very well and made most of the steps fairly easy. It was pretty straightforward. Most of it was done over the phone and through emails. So, that made it simple.

We have other family members that have done a reverse mortgage and it worked out for them so we chose it as part of our retirement plan. Finance of America Reverse seemed to be the least amount of pressure on making up a decision. They were not pushy and demanding unlike Quicken Loans. The lady there was very knowledgeable. If she didn’t have an answer to any questions I had, she'd find out what the answer would be and kept me very informed. The whole process was pretty painless and everything seems to be smooth. The company gets monthly statements which really is helpful because I’m a paper person, not an online person. We have already recommended them to several people at work.

Finance of America Reverse was well organized and they seemed to be on top of things. They explained everything to me over five different phone calls and they sounded like they knew what they were doing. They gave me all the options, and I had some other questions, and then I made the decision on my own. We worked those out and we were ready to go. It was a simple, easy and smooth process and if it's for you, that's the way to go.

Mr. ** was very courteous and involved. My only complaint was with the appraisal process which caused us costs unexpected and detrimental to our financial condition when it was required that our crawlspace be cleaned out for the appraisal to be approved and completed. With a reverse mortgage, the minimum age for qualification is 62. A review of crawlspaces in the neighborhood that ALL use as storage. Even those younger and not having bad knees or backs had things there. This needs to be addressed up front.

Robert ** was wonderful from the beginning and even when things looked bleak in getting my reverse mortgage, he stuck by me and never gave up. He was sensitive to my needs and sincere in his help. I will tell any friend that is interested in a Reverse Mortgage to give Robert a call. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Without your help I would not have been able to stay in my home.

Teri did a marvelous job in getting us our reverse mortgage. I would have given her 5 stars if we had gotten it at no cost. However she did do her very best to reduce our closing costs and I commend her for doing so. They were well below the competition. Teri was very astute and detail oriented and explained everything to us to our satisfaction. I would definitely recommend her to anyone interested in doing a reverse mortgage.

We are very pleased with your company and representative William ** and the appraiser. William patiently walked us through a very complex unfamiliar product that many in my family had false preconceived ideas about. His approach was educational to give us the information to allow us to come to our own conclusion about whether or not the reverse mortgage was the best choice for our situation. We are also very pleased with the appraisal process. The appraiser did a thorough job finding comps that gave us an appraised value beyond our expectations. Thank you William and all who were involved in this important decision.

We had a need for additional income and bought a reverse mortgage, but the people whom we bought our original reverse mortgage from sold their business to Finance of America. Then we decided that we wanted to do the refinancing with them. Our primary contact provided a lot of answers to some of the initial questions that I had. So it moved from the stage of us being curious whether we could accomplish some improvement in our situation because there's been increased appraised values for houses in our area. Also, we wanted to get up to the $625,000 maximum that reverse mortgages are written for and get the best interest rate possible and that arrangement.

It started out really good with Finance of America Reverse but I was misled on a couple of things. The guy who I was dealing with ended up leaving or getting fired and it left me hanging. And then somebody else took over for him but the numbers and everything were far different than what were told to me at first, not for the better. So I was thinking of having it investigated and calling in to let a professional know that I was very unsatisfied and if there was something I could do about it. And I'm still thinking about that but I've calmed down a little bit. I've been trying to put this out of my mind because it's a done deal. I'm three months into it already. But if I didn't have to go through with it and if I wasn't under a time limit about getting my loan closed, I would have dropped the whole thing. It was really not good. I probably ended up losing close to $18,000 and I really had no recourse.

My son takes care of a lot of my financial works. He was the one who decided to use Finance of America because he had looked into other companies and thought that this was the best opportunity for me. I found them very helpful. The only objection I had is that it was ongoing for months before we finally settled. It seemed to me that the company wasn't just one who was handling it. It was somebody in Philadelphia and somebody out west. It was a little confusing, but it worked out. I’m very satisfied with the guidance I've received. It was very thorough and a lot of required paperwork because the government requested it just for my benefit. I would recommend them.

I recently had the delightful experience in conducting business with Jamie **, in obtaining a reverse mortgage loan on my house. I knew absolutely nothing about a reverse mortgage loan. Mrs. ** told me all what all was involved and did so with patient and professionalism. I asked her many questions about the process and each time she responded to me with intelligent answers and courtesy. Jamie always responded promptly to my phone calls and even gave me her personal cell phone number.

Mr. Nigel ** help my husband and me when even the bank wouldn't even help us save our home. Mr. ** was there for us through it all and did everything possible for us to save our home. Thanks a lot to Reverse Mortgage and Mr. Nigel **.

I needed some extra income to pay off the two notes I had. My kids all have homes and my place is paid for. Also, I'm 100% disabled. I got in touch with Finance of America Reverse and I like the guy I talked to but he wasn't forthcoming in everything that was going to happen. He told me that I'd get $19,000 on my first draw and $23,000 on the second. I got some papers the other day that showed what I will receive. I only got $13,400 for the first draw and they're going to hold the $23,000 that I thought I was getting next year but I'm only getting $6,000. They will pay my taxes and my insurance but the taxes and insurance together don't even come close to that. I'd rather pay that myself. I’d have to live 25 more years to use that money.

The reverse mortgage with Finance of America Reverse was a part of my grandmother's retirement plan and I was involved when we got it for the first time in 2014 and it went great. But because the deletion of people dying and it did not have appropriate burial arrangements, we had to go through it again. On the second time, it took me a whole year to decide because I had to become conservator and guardian. Also, I had to do two different appraisals on the house because when the underwriters rewrote some of the plans, it knocked me out the loop again which was a mess. I really was upset with our agent, Julie, because I could not catch her on the phone. However, Robert did try to do what he could do and he stuck with me through the whole year of getting it done.

My husband put out feelers on what exactly to expect from refinancing. Several mortgage companies contacted us, but I didn't like the pushiness of the people that I had talked to previously, and Finance of America wasn't like that. They were just very explicit. Marina, the rep that helped us, had called us and we spoke with her. That was about two years ago. Then, when we decided to go ahead and do the refinance with Finance of America, we called Marina and spoke again with her, and we went through with it.

I put an inquiry in on the internet about reverse mortgage in general and Finance of America was the first to respond to the request. The rep was the most aggressive of all the people that called and she came in with a fairly attractive package. Even though it wasn't the lowest, it was within percentage points of the other people that submitted offers. I was already set with what I wanted to do and I just needed someone that I trusted to get me from what I needed to do and from where I was, and I felt a comfort level with her because she was so aggressive and continue to follow up. I felt like she would see it through the whole process rather than just get frustrated and let it fall through the cracks.

I lost my job and the reverse mortgage made social security enough. Finance of America Reverse reacted quickly and got through the process amazingly fast. The loan officer was extremely professional, friendly, and responsive. Also made me feel comfortable, and never left me hanging wondering what’s going on. And sometimes called just to check-in. I really enjoyed it. When I’m eligible to refile it again in 18 months, they’ll be my first choice.

This is my first review ever. I am doing it to take the fear away from other seniors who may be rethinking the golden years. I was very skeptical of the entire process to begin with. After talking with a lawyer, and mortgage broker I decided too deep to my toe into the process. I felt lucky to talk to a representative Matthew ** of Finance of America. He answered all my questions, and many I didn't know I needed to ask. I was still in the research mode - he stayed with me for over 5 months to help me through my decision process. I would like to add always with a cheerful demeanor. Once I made the decision to proceed - the entire team, Mike **, Crystal **, and Marci ** more than PHENOMENAL. If you are on the fence - this is a vote for Finance of America.

Recently I applied for a reverse mortgage with Finance of America. William and Jasmine provided me with superlative assistance. Their expert knowledge and assistance made the entire process smooth and seamless. They were like a well oiled machine that made the entire process simple and pleasant. They had ready answers for my array of questions about the bewildering and complex process of a reverse mortgage.

I found Finance of America Reverse on the internet and went with them because of the people I talked to. However, I didn’t know that they would only give me a certain amount of money the first year. I assumed that they had a loan on the house that they were collecting interest on.

We recently finalized our reverse mortgage. Our specialist was Linda **. She guided us through the entire process professionally. She answered all of our questions and concerns quickly and efficiently. We would definitely recommend Mrs. ** as a specialist.

WE knew virtually nothing about Reverse Mortgages and just got online to see what we could find out. Finance of America's William ** was the first one to answer our queries and we were so pleased with all the information that we received from him. He was honest, and patient and answered every question we had, and made sure we understood everything along the way. He was there for us from the beginning until the end. I don't know how anyone could be any better at working through every step of the way. We had heard some horror stories about the process taking so long, but ours was over in less than a month from start to finish! We would not hesitate to recommend Finance of America to anyone!

Getting any mortgage now seems to be time consuming and difficult. Getting a reverse mortgage may be even more tedious. However, I have nothing but praise for Jamie **, the specialist, and Julie **, the processor, both from Finance of America Reverse, who guided me through the system and finally got it done. This is a good product for people with a situation like ours, but you will need help from someone with expertise, experience and patience.

I wanted to avoid paying mortgage monthly so I chose a reverse mortgage. I put a question online and there were a couple of companies that came up and offered their services. Finance of America's representative was very pleasant, efficient, and explained everything that was involved. She delivered everything she promised. I'm on $6,000 plus per year on mortgage payments and it's safe as long as my wife and I are here. Nobody's going to throw us on the street if we don't make payments or we have to do it to pay taxes and insurances, which is affordable.

We went into inquiring about a reverse mortgage with no knowledge whatsoever! We were lucky to have Mr. William ** be the gentleman that helped us. He was very thorough giving us every bit of information needed. He kept us informed every step of the way. We would highly recommend William ** and the co. He represents Finance of America.

One of the main things that made me pick Finance of America Reverse was when they had the inspection at my house, they didn't make me pay for it ahead of time and they took it out of my money. They couldn't have done the reverse mortgage if they didn't do that because I didn't have money to start with, so that was good. I also liked Stacy a lot. I liked her personality and the way she handled everything. She was very friendly, helpful and she was always with me no matter what. I called her about something I got in the mail that I didn't understand. Then, she had me mail it to her and she figured that it was a fraud thing, which I thought it was. She took her time and talked to me anytime. I've received very good guidance. It's been a very positive experience.

To free up some money, I considered doing a reverse mortgage. I went with Finance of America Reverse because they had the highest rating. I was also interested with them because their settlement cost was lower than the two other quotes that I’ve received. Moreover, I did very well with their representative whom I spoke to at first. Robert "Rob", the loan officer was very pleasant to deal with as well. He was very knowledgeable and patient. Anytime I had questions, I was free to call him and he would answer my questions or he would get back to me as soon as possible. Because of him, everything went so well. Every time there was something new coming up, he would call and explain to me and I was never feeling like I don't know what I'm doing or don't know what's happening. I would recommend him myself as the person to go to.

My wife's 68 and I'm 76. We still have a pretty good-sized house payment and we want to do other things besides work. Finance of America Reverse was recommended by friends. Our loan officer was very good because if we had any problems, we could call him any time of the day. We had a cell phone number and telephone number where he lives and we talk to him several times in the evening after my wife got off work. However, we weren't aware of the company that took over the monthly correspondence to us with our balances and things. And there was that other company that came to us without us knowing who they were and we were reluctant to give them any information. But it got straightened out. The whole process took a little longer than we wanted but overall, Finance of America was excellent and we've recommended them to others as well.

I absolutely clicked with Troy from Finance of America Reverse on the first conversation I had with him. I like him and I like where he's coming from. He's a gentleman and I like working with him. Also, the guidance I've received was good. The truth to the matter is I went against everyone by choosing a reverse mortgage. But, the bottom line was they told me it was my decision and I couldn't live in my house without one. They thought it would be a good idea for me to just go into a townhome. Although, I chose to stay in my own home and I made up my mind. I feel good about that and they have accepted it since there's nothing they can do about it. It's my life. It was a positive experience. I would recommend them especially, Troy.

William ** and his colleagues of Finance of America Reverse were a pleasure to work with. They made the reverse mortgage experience pleasurable by keeping me informed and up to date during the entire process. I was equipped with all the information I needed in order to make the correct choice of products. Once I made a decision the loan closed in lightning speed and without a hitch. Anyone of retirement age, own their home and considering a Reverse Mortgage would benefit immensely by speaking with William. He is a very honest and forthright guy and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and his team. William it was wonderful doing business with you!

I needed some cash and the equity in my house was the only real asset I had. I worked with Finance of America Reverse and with loan officer Derek who was great. I liked him and he did a very good job of keeping me informed on what I needed to do and taking care of all my issues. He was very nice, wasn't pushy, and I was very happy with him. I asked a lot of questions and I was given the information I needed to make an appropriate decision. Everything wasn't done perfectly in some of the paperwork things, like for the direct deposit. Also, although it's not a real issue right now, I keep getting stuff that there's a $500 and $10,000 lien on my property. I don't get that and it's always the same amount, which that wasn't the value of my house.

I had a very positive experience with Finance of America and most notably Christopher **. Chris was there for us every step of the way. I would recommend Finance of America to anyone looking at a reverse mortgage.

My financial advisor recommended me Finance of America Reverse. The reps explained to me what I can offer and I have to make an appointment with the counseling section. After I get through with that, they said that I will qualify and go back to the field application. They have the appraisal and they check everything to make sure I have enough money to pay for my daily living. And then after I qualify, they approve so it takes about three months. It was simple, clear and understandable. The reps were friendly and they helped me a lot whenever we need to question the expense with us. They also let me know what I have to do to approve it. I have to pay my current home insurance and take care of my house in condition. All in all, Finance of America Reverse is a good program and this is my second month with them. It's some extra, steady income and it helps a lot especially for retirement people like me.

I needed to redo some things. Finance of America Reverse was on top of things so I decided to go with them. My interactions with their loan officer were fine and the guidance I was given was great. They told me the ups and downs of it. My sales agent was really helpful as well as my loan processor.

The process took a little bit too long, but the loan officer did the best he could. The people around him were looking for the insurance of my house for the flood zone. My house is in a flood zone but it’s high. And I finally went to the guy that surveyed the land before and he wrote the elevation height. I sent it to them and they accepted. I’m also going over some figures for the money that they’re sending me, and for some reason, they don’t seem to match what they said. But I’m gonna still go through it and I wanna make sure I’m right.

I needed some money and a reverse mortgage was the only way I could get any. The people at Finance of America Reverse were very knowledgeable and helpful. The guidance I received has been very good and I was very glad working with them.

I've spent probably the last three years thinking about a reverse mortgage before I made the decision. I went online searching for the best company and Finance of America Reverse came up as the best one to use. Everything has been great and goes exactly the way I expected it to be.

We wanted to be sure that we can keep our home until something happens to us and we had thought about doing a reverse mortgage a year before. We finally decided to try it and my husband liked Finance of America Reverse. One of the other companies sent some paperwork to us, but it was in somebody else’s name so that was bad clue for them. And by the time my husband had talked to the others, he was already happy talking to someone from Finance of America Reverse. He answered all our questions and was ready to be there and explain the whole thing to us. He came to the house with all the final papers and we did the application. I had a lot of questions about the opposite side as I sell foreclosures for Fannie Mae and he was very knowledgeable.

The other lenders I worked with were a little too glib and I don’t like people who are like that. They're just playing a game. But Julie from FAR was working at the same time seeking my interest. We connected and I was happy. Her heart was in the right place and that’s why I stayed with them. I'd recommend FAR to a friend based on how it went so far.

We felt like a reverse mortgage was the only way to go. Our son looked into it, followed it up and called several companies. He and his dad talked to them together and made the decision on which one. We felt like Finance of America Reverse was the best deal where we would get the most money. Josh, the man that they were working with, was very helpful and everybody was straightforward. However, when the first papers came, they had my husband's name as Robert William instead of William Robert. Everything had to be changed and initialed. He thought that was very careless that his name was not correct on the paperwork but when the final set of papers came, it was all right. Also, they sent us a check instead of directly depositing the first time around but that has since been corrected.

My husband had used Finance of America Reverse. I used them, too, and got a reverse mortgage because I needed money. I’m happy with my experience with Finance of America Reverse. They were very thorough and good. They also kept us informed every minute of the day and it went fast.

They were really nice at Finance of America Reverse. They answered all my questions and every call I made to them. They were great. I was a procrastinator, and they tried to calm my nerves because I've heard so many bad things about reverse mortgages. Jesse, the loan officer, was very nice, personable and made me feel comfortable. The guidance they gave me was excellent. It was easy to get through and there were no hidden fees. I’m happy with my experience with them and I would definitely recommend them.

I’ve had better experiences compared to the one I had with Finance of America. Their loan officer needs a little more experience to be doing what he’s doing. We had several issues that he wasn’t fully aware of. I was told I needed to carry a homeowners insurance on a house that has a master policy because it’s a townhouse. They didn’t do their homework and read the paperwork that was submitted to them that they asked for. Then they told me I needed to carry interior insurance because they didn’t read the policy that said the interior insurance was already covered and shorted me $900 at closing. So it’s substantial amount of time and frustration to get that resolved. There was a lack of communication on their part.

We went with Finance of America Reverse when our daughter needed money. Our loan officer was very easy to work with and everything was fine with him. He was very congenial. Whenever I called with a question, he had the answers for me. We had never done anything like this before but everything seemed to work very well for us.

The loan officer that we talked to was very good. She was on top of it and called back when she's supposed to. My wife did most of the work with her and she really liked her. We were in Utah and the loan officer was in Southern California, but she was very precise. It was good customer service. The whole process went relatively smoothly. We've never done it before but we're impressed. Finance of America Reverse has very good operation overall and I'd recommend them.

My financial adviser had me choose a reverse mortgage as part of my retirement plan. I went with Finance of America Reverse and it was a nightmare. They promised stuff that never happened. They should not lie and I had to be on the phone screaming to get stuff done. It was not a pleasant experience.

From the first phone call to the completion of our reverse mortgage, Nicole was the ultimate professional and compassionate listener. Her knowledge about her field of practice was vast, her problem-solving skills were superb, her ability to listen to us, and have compassion about our situation was wonderfully soothing and calming as she let us know she would go the extra mile for us...and she did. She fought hard to make our situation better and she did. She was our champion, overcoming all obstacles, and she was successful in completing our goal. Thank you, Nicole, for all of your hard work on our behalf.

I previously had a reverse mortgage and we were refinancing it. I saw Finance of America Reverse in my email, responded to the email, and liked what I saw. The loan officer who I worked with was wonderful. She explained everything very carefully and was knowledgeable. It was a very pleasant experience.

I retired in July and I could see that our income wasn’t gonna be quite enough to live the life we wanted to, so I got a reverse mortgage from Finance of America Reverse. It was a good experience. They seemed to be pretty easy to work with and professional. My loan officer was extremely helpful and explained things very well. I got excellent guidance and I’m very satisfied with them.

Reverse mortgage worked for me! Nicole ** worked diligently on my reverse mortgage from the start. She was faced with so many unusual situations but she plunged through these problems and kept me informed. She kept me motivated and showed me encouragement when it was needed. She also helped me feel confident that things would work out. With all her hard work I finally closed on January 2017! All I can say is "Nicole ** is amazing".

I didn't have enough money so decided on a reverse mortgage. Finance of America Reverse was among a list of many banks that I got from an online service and the guy I spoke with from there, Scott, was very helpful on many levels. He talked about some things that were in addition and around to how these things work. He also gave me fairly straight answers about the iffier aspects of it. The company also provided good guidance. However, it was hard for me to make out exactly where the money is coming from and going to. They tend to offer really amazingly good things and it makes me nervous when I don’t understand who is profiting from that. Otherwise Finance of America Reverse was what I needed.

I don’t have any children and I have $500,000 worth of equity in my home, so I looked into a reverse mortgage as part of my retirement plan. I thought I'd just get a monthly payment until I pass away. I compared companies, and my monthly amount was larger at Finance of America so I went with them. The conditions for me to get my reverse mortgage were very limited, and my experience with Finance of America helped me. It was a very smooth transition and I'm very happy.

I wanted to quit working and a reverse mortgage was a way for me to retire full time without a mortgage. I got into Finance of America Reverse through the gentleman who was working with me, Tim. He was very conscientious and he explained everything. He also works with me detail by detail and explained to me what would happen and things that I needed to have and how to go about getting them. My experience with them was very good and pleasant. It was a pleasure to work with them.

William ** & his associate Jasmine not only helpful but professional and went beyond to make everything smooth, but gave us everything that what would every step of the way to be expected. We had shopped around a little and found they were the most helpful, but the best & easiest route to what we wanted to achieve. In the end they went beyond because of their experience. We are grateful.

Because it was available and I needed extra money at that time to help with expenses, I decided to look into a reverse mortgage and went with Finance of America Reverse. My experience with them went fine. The Finance of America loan agent was really friendly to work with. Everything was explained step by step, and I didn’t have any problems at all.

Our building is made up of selfish people on the board who didn’t want to spend the money for FHA insurance. I told the manager that she was being unfair to those of us who had to get a reverse mortgage. Nobody here has ever had one because the interest is so high. It was hard to find a reverse mortgage company that didn’t take FHA. She did some research and gave me three companies, two of which didn’t give a reverse mortgage and Finance of America Reverse did, so I called them.

I wanted to put an addition on the house so I can stay in the house, and I got a reverse mortgage. I reviewed the opinions from other users that were available and Finance of America Reverse seemed to have a high rating. The initiator of the loan was very helpful and everybody else was great as well. Whenever I called with a question I got a reasonable response time. I would recommend them.

William ** was our agent thru the whole process of this transaction. He helped in a friendly manner, but with good business advice. He knows the process perfectly and explains it in detail. We feel like we also made a friend that we can call on in the future if we have any questions or concerns. So thank you, William, for a job well done.

I was on disability and I lost my husband a while ago. Now I lost that income I needed money really badly and a lot of people kept saying that a reverse mortgage was a good idea. I put in a request for information on the internet and I got a call from Finance of America Reverse. The person I talked with all the time was very good and he explained everything to me. I loved him as he was very good.

Our experience with Finance of America has been great so far. The rep I was dealing with was awfully nice and helpful. I was more impressed with her than I was with any of the other finance companies. We just got started but I would recommend them.

So far, my experience with Finance of America Reverse has been good. The lady that I talked to did a really good job, so I went with them. I would recommend Finance of America.

I needed some extra money, and I found out that Finance of America Reverse was related to the government and was approved by FHA so I called them and they got on the ball right away. The guy from Finance of America Reverse helped me out a lot. He called and texted me back right away so he wasn't slacking on the job. In a month’s time, my loan went through, I had my money and everything was done.

After my husband passed away, I had some bills that I needed to pay so I figured a reverse mortgage was the easiest way. I went with Finance of America Reverse and had very good communication with their rep. I had no problems and felt comfortable with the guidance that I've received from them.

I felt that getting a reverse mortgage made sense for us at this particular time. I did some research online of companies and saw how they were rated. I was interested in a jumbo and there were two major companies that offer that and I interviewed both. I was particularly impressed with the responsiveness and the overall attitude of the agent from Finance of America Reverse with whom that I got in touch with. She did an outstanding job, was very emphatic and very helpful in giving me the information I needed in terms of explanations for the things with which I wasn't familiar with. And if I had questions, she was always available to answer them. She went to a great deal of effort to make sure that I had everything that I needed. Finance of America Reverse was very productive and thoughtful and the guidance I received from them was excellent.

I have equity in a home and have nobody to leave it to. I might as well enjoy it while I'm here and got myself a reverse mortgage. I contacted 5 companies and Finance of America reverse was the best. Things went predominantly positive with their team but communication was weak from time to time. The guidance I received from the sales rep was quite good but she was a little impatient towards the end. And there still are a couple of issues outstanding that I want to discuss with the rep I spoke with on the phone and the attorney that came to my house. The documents I signed were not the same terms that I agreed to on the phone and I didn't know that until after I signed them.

When we bought our home we worked with Josh **. We were under time constraints, and there was much to be done, so stress levels were high. But Josh is a very calm and personable fellow, and while he worked quickly and tirelessly to put all the pieces together, he also 'held our hands', long-distance, giving us assurance that all would be done in time, which it was! Thanks so much, Josh!

My experience with Finance of America Reverse was very good. The reverse mortgage seemed to be a good instrument to help me with my finances at the time and the rep that helped me with the loan was most responsible for my decision to go through with it. I wasn’t even going to go with it but he made it all happen and he was excellent and responsive. It's a very lengthy process, but it has to be if they were dealing with the government.

It was a pleasure having Amber ** of Finance of America Reverse walk my wife and I through the process of a reverse mortgage. She was very professional and knowledgeable which made the experience delightful. Thanks for your help.

We wanted to get rid of the mortgage payment and looked onto the future of using some of the equity on home improvements. We took a good six months to decide on what we were going to do and Finance of America's sales rep kept in contact with us while we were making our decisions. Other companies were an absolute pain in the ass. We were working out on a lot of things involved such as potential moves and career changes, and Finance of America's sales rep told us to let him know how things were going and that he'll touch base with us in 30 days. Sure enough, he did and he was always on time, courteous, and I felt confident with him.

I had a first reverse mortgage and took some more money out when I was told that the house was worth more. We were self-employed and had no investments. My husband died and I had worked very little, and the only thing I had money in was my house. The person from Finance of America Reverse who I worked with was very knowledgeable and willing to talk to me.

I was going with another company and my nephew talked to somebody at Finance of America Reverse and told me about it. Then, I called and found out that some of their charges were less than what I was looking at so I switched. I worked with two reps, one in Oklahoma and another in New York, and they both did fine. I'd recommend Finance of America Reverse to a friend.

When I needed to get past our bill, Finance of America Reverse was the first one that I contacted and the people were very friendly. They gave me the information that I needed. I would recommend them to anybody that would be interested in doing a reverse mortgage.

It was a fine experience with Finance of America Reverse. I had no problems. My husband and I had talked about getting a reverse mortgage for quite some time before I went into it. He had looked into it and was the one who originally contacted Finance of America. I went from there and their rep was cordial and very informative. He gave me a lot of good information and points about the reverse mortgage.

I inquired about a reverse mortgage and checked into different companies. I requested information online and then everybody started calling. Finance of America Reverse was one of them and I liked their service based from the others. The loan officer was knowledgeable and patient with me. I had a lot of questions because I wasn't too sure, so he explained everything and I really liked his customer service which is why I stayed with him out of all the other ones that I was dealing with. The courtesy he had through the whole process was outstanding. And I found him very honest and very helpful, whereas the others to me were just thinking about themselves and not about my needs.

I had a real good experience with the reps at Finance of America Reverse. They answered my questions. I would recommend them.

I was on a fixed income and had put so much money into the house. I had so little coming in. I needed to move my wife into my house because of illness and take care of her. She's disabled and I needed to fix an apartment for her so that she can come in and out of the house. Doing a reverse mortgage was the only way I could do it.

I had some things that I wanted to do and I wanted to use the equity in the house to take care of some additional repair work and also give me a little cushion in case of an emergency. The guy that worked with me was fantastic, knowledgeable, and professional. He gave me the information if I repeated the question and did not rush me. I could tell he wanted to give me the information and help me along the path if I attempted to see what to do about this. I'm supposed to receive some more money later on in March. I know that what I'm able to borrow is based on the homes in the neighborhood. So, as far as practical information and return of calls go, it was a reasonable experience.

The market went sour on me and I lost too much money. The only thing I had left that had value was the home. I had plenty of equity in it so I got a reverse mortgage as part of the retirement plan. The loan officer was there not just for business, but she was almost like a friend. The thing that surprised me though were the fees at the end of it all. I had no idea they were going to be that much, but by that time it was too late. Sometimes it will be $6,000+ in fees. It might have swayed my decision to even do it, but it's done now. Other than that, I'm satisfied with Finance of America Reverse.

The loan officer at Finance of America Reverse has been very helpful. He walked us through every step of the way and explained everything that we wanted to know. He was very kind and we felt that we made a good decision.

I built my home 20 years ago but my children were not interested in it. I loved this home and wanted to stay there. A reverse mortgage made sense and was the best way to go. I did a search for the top 10 companies and Finance of America Reverse came up. Had it not been for my loan officer, John, I would not have gone through with the loan. He was the most incredible banking broker I've ever worked with in my life.

I was broke and I saw Finance of America Reverse. I needed such service. Once the paper was signed, I didn't hear from anybody which was questionable, but I wasn't disappointed. I got something in the mail from them and I'm confused about it. I am trying to find the woman who handled my case and ask what it is about. I'm also not going to do anything about the bill for the taxes 'cause everything is supposed to be taken care of. Finance of America Reverse took $77,000 out to pay all these things for the rest of my life. But I question why they sent return envelopes for the two payments that I did.

My father passed away. He had a little life insurance and not a ton of money so that left my mother only with the social security income. His retirement dropped a very small amount too and that was unable to keep up with the bills. And my mother did rely on the money he had. So it was either she would have to lose the home or get it done with a reverse mortgage from FAR so she could stay in her home.

I've done the reverse mortgage from Finance of America and I've already spent $20,000. Now, I have the monthly payment for the home improvement and I don't have that monthly payment for the house. So, that helped me get something inside my house nicer than I had that I'm able to be more comfortable with. I did both of my bathrooms and the walk-in shower - things that would be good for me for later on. The loan officer from Finance America was good and he helped me out a whole lot. Everybody that he sent over, including the guy who appraised it and the guy who did the paperwork, were all nice.

I looked into a reverse mortgage since it was beneficial to my financial status. I went with Finance of America, and my loan agent was very apt, friendly and helpful. Everything went well. All the information was requested and submitted, and all went as planned.

Since I like the idea of not having a mortgage, I applied with Finance of America Reverse. Charity, my primary agent, and Jasmine were excellent. In fact, the people at Finance of America were all very accommodating and wonderful. I had a lot of problems but they worked through them. I have a home in New Jersey and I was down in Florida looking to purchase a house. I finally came back to New Jersey and when I got back here, everything was already in place. They sent someone to the house to notarize and I signed the papers here at the house in New Jersey. It got delayed a few times due to some problems. I'm a widow, and the underwriters wanted my husband's death certificate. I was in Florida, and the certificate was from New Jersey and that was a lot of stuff.
