Reverse mortgage FAQ

General reverse mortgage questions

How do I qualify for a reverse mortgage?

Qualifying for a reverse mortgage with EIB is largely based on property type, location, and borrower's age. We lend to borrowers aged 55+ with homes in urban centres in Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec.

What options do I have for receiving my reverse mortgage funds?

You can take the mortgage proceeds upfront as a one-time advance (an Initial Advance). Alternatively, you can take a large sum upfront (minimum amount of $25,000) and the remaining funds as Single Advances and/or Recurring Advances scheduled over several years.

How much equity will I have left?

This depends on the amount you borrow and the growth of your home's value over time. Our reverse mortgage calculators can help you understand your equity position.
