On September 2nd, 2014, a report was released by the Harvard Joint Center for Housing Studies and the AARP Foundation.  The executive chairman, Henry Cisneros, stated, "We have a big problem....Many aging Americans don't have personal savings, and governmental budgets are strapped."  The study goes on to say that reverse mortgages can offer financial security for those whom are eligible.  It adds that a reverse mortgage can provide much needed income for those who have most of their wealth in home equity.  The entire report is available by clicking here.
