Reverse Mortgage Home Sales

What “Reverse Mortgage Home Selling” Means
Selling a home with a reverse mortgage is completely allowed — but the loan must be paid off at closing, including the borrowed amount, interest, and fees. 
A reverse mortgage is still just a lien on the property. You keep the title, so you can sell whenever you choose.
📌 What Happens When You Sell
When you sell a home with a reverse mortgage:
You must repay the loan balance from the sale proceeds.
If the home sells for more than the loan balance → you keep the remaining equity. 
If the home sells for less than the loan balance → mortgage insurance covers the difference (for HECM loans). 
This is because HECM reverse mortgages are non‑recourse loans — the lender cannot pursue your other assets.
