Reverse Illustrator and Financial Planning
2021-12-07 14:00 - 15:00
With rapidly appreciating home values, more and more Financial Advisors and their clients are taking a fresh look at Reverse Mortgages. Now with our powerful Illustrator tool, you will be able to show them the flexibility and options that a reverse mortgage can bring to a financial plan.
The Illustrator combines interactive charts and graphs to answer a number of “what if” questions such as:
* How would the available line-of-credit change if voluntary payments are made?
* What impact would rising interest rates have on the loan and line of credit balances?
* What if the home value stayed flat or even declined?
* How much money could be taken out from the reverse at a later date?
Join us to learn how to navigate this easy to use software. We will also review several concepts that you can share with your prospects and referral partners that have led to actual sales.
