| Description: | Seven-minute audio clip from NPR's "All Things Considered" program of April 17, 2004 focusing on reverse mortgages. NPR's Cheryl Corley reports reverse mortgages offer a way for older people to stay in their homes without sacrificing life's necessities -- including such expenses as long-term medical care -- or even some of life's pleasures. The notes come due when the homeowner dies or moves. An estimated 13 million households qualify for nearly $1 trillion in reverse mortgages, though only a fraction of people eligible are currently taking advantage of the program. And there's a cautionary note: reverse mortgages include closing costs, insurance and application fees that can make them expensive. |
