Aging Life Care Managers™ who work with older homeowners may have clients who currently have a reverse mortgage loan on their home or who may be considering a reverse mortgage to supplement retirement funds. To help Aging Life Care Managers understand reverse mortgages better, the National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Association is please to present a webinar even that will explain:

- Situations where they make sense
- Ongoing obligations of the loan and what happens when the borrower moves or passes away
- Alternatives to reverse mortgages
The National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Association (NRMLA) is the national voice of the reverse mortgage industry, serving as an educational resource, policy advocate and public affairs center for lenders and related professionals. NRMLA was established in 1997 to enhance the professionalism of the reverse mortgage business.
NRMLA’s Commitment to Education: NRMLA is working to educate professionals who work with older adults about how reverse mortgages work, who may benefit from one, and the ongoing obligations of the loan. Two years ago, we hosted our first Reverse Mortgage Education Week which included a series of webinars that outlined various ways home equity can be used to manage the costs of aging.
Our mission is to educate consumers about the pros and cons of reverse mortgages, to train lenders to be sensitive to clients’ needs, to enforce our Code of Ethics and Professional Responsibility, and to advise policy makers on reverse mortgage issues.
