Get a reverse mortgage with Equitable Bank

This financing solution allows you to enjoy your lifestyle and focus on your priorities, like paying off debt, covering everyday expenses, making renovations, and supporting your family—all while retaining ownership of your home, and making no payments until the mortgage is due.

Reverse Mortgage Rate
Reverse Mortgage Rate Information
- The interest rate displayed is dependent on the interest rate term selected in the drop down menu.
- The Reverse Mortgage Prime Rate (P) is the annual rate of interest that is established from time to time by Equitable Bank, at its discretion, as a point of reference.
- An adjustable interest rate term consists of the Reverse Mortgage Prime Rate plus or minus an adjustment factor and varies automatically if and when the Reverse Mortgage Prime Rate changes.
- Interest is calculated and charged daily based on the daily equivalent of a fixed or adjustable interest rate, compounded semi-annually (for a fixed rate) or monthly (for an adjustable rate), not in advance.
- Rates are subject to change at any time without notice.
Reverse mortgage vs. Line of credit
When it comes to lending options, your choice depends on what matters to you most. Unlike a reverse mortgage, a line of credit may require payments and significant amounts of verifiable income for qualification. If you’re looking to access tax-free cash, with plenty of repayment options, a reverse mortgage might be the better option.
Considering a reverse mortgage is part of a larger financial decision when it comes to your home and your family. As you discuss this option with your loved ones, you’ll be better prepared to make a decision that’s right for you.
