Unlike a regular mortgage, a reverse mortgage is a scheme wherein you can use your house property as collateral to avail a loan. The bank values and inspects your property and finalises the total loan amount. In contrast to a regular mortgage wherein you make periodic payments to the bank for the mortgage availed, the bank makes periodic payments to you in a reverse mortgage. The Government launched this scheme in India in the year 2007.
How does a reverse mortgage scheme help you? Well, if you are a senior citizen with a self-owned house who is finding it hard to sustain household expenses with the current income, you can use the scheme to increase your monthly income. The loan-to-value (LTV) offered by most banks in India ranges from 60% to 80%. The total loan amount provided by most banks is restricted to 1 crore regardless of the house's value. The maximum loan period varies from 10-20 years, 15 being the highest for most lenders but some offer tenure up to 20.
Some of the key eligibility criteria in order to avail of the reverse mortgage scheme are:
Apart from the above basic criteria, other eligibility criteria like the condition of the property in question, maximum loan amount, and other features vary across lenders.
Letās understand the scheme with an example. Say the value of your house property, inspected and valued by the bank, comes to 80 lakhs, and the bank offers an LTV of 60%. Hence the bank would lend you a sum of 48 lakhs. Assuming the loan tenure is ten years and the interest rate offered is 8% by the bank, you would receive a value of ā¹ 26,237 every month for the next ten years.
At the end of the loan tenure, the payouts by the bank would stop, but you can continue to stay in the property without the need to repay the loan. In the case of your death, the bank would assume ownership of the property and sell it to recover the loan amount. Also, you will need to repay the outstanding loan if you decide to move away from the property or sell it.
