Reverse Mortgage Amortization Calculator

A reverse mortgage is a "negative amortization" loan, meaning your loan balance grows over time as interest and mortgage insurance are added to the principal. Our reverse mortgage amortization calculator is designed to help you understand how your loan balance will grow over the life of the loan.

How Reverse Mortgage Amortization Works

When you take out a reverse mortgage, you don't make monthly payments. Instead, the interest and mortgage insurance are added to your loan balance each month. A reverse mortgage amortization calculator can show you how this balance grows over 10, 20, or 30 years, and how much equity you'll have left in your home.

Visualizing Your Loan Balance vs. Home Equity

Using a reverse mortgage amortization calculator can help you visualize the trade-off between accessing your home equity now and leaving equity for your heirs. It's important to remember that a reverse mortgage is a non-recourse loan, meaning you'll never owe more than the home is worth when it's sold.
