THE MORTGAGE PROFESSOR:

Keeping tabs on a HECM reverse mortgage —a new tool for seniors

BY JACK GUTTENTAG  TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICES

In 2010, when she desperately needed additional income, a woman named Sheila P. took out a reverse mortgage, even though her home in Nevada had fallen sharply in value during the previous four years. Home prices in Nevada rebounded sharply, however, and by 2016, her home had almost doubled in value. Sheila responded by refinancing her home equity conversion mortgage — the federal government’s reverse mortgage option — and the move increased the amount of money she receives each month substantially.

Most home equity conversion mortgage, or HECM, borrowers are aware of the refinance option because they had the same option on their standard mortgage. HECM borrowers also have other options, however, which are unique to HECMs and may not be known or fully understood. Those who take a monthly payment, as Sheila did, and find later that their needs would be better served by a larger or smaller payment for a different period or by a credit line on which they could draw as needed, can modify the transaction without charge. If they had originally

taken a credit line and decide later that they prefer a steady monthly payment, they can make that switch as well.

MORTGAGE MANAGEMENT IS A CHALLENGE ON REVERSE MORTGAGES For a consumer, getting a mortgage poses one set of challenges. Managing the mortgage after they get it poses a completely different set. The firms that service mortgages work for the lender and their major objective is to make sure that borrowers meet their payment and other obligations to the lender. Issues important mainly to the borrower usually are left for the borrower to work out.

On standard mortgages, such managerial challenges are not that difficult. In dealing with the challenge of paying down the loan balance early, for example, borrowers have access to a variety of internet-based tools. On my website alone, there are six calculators and four spreadsheets directed toward this problem.

With HECMs, on the other hand, it is a very different story. Except for borrowers who have drawn the

maximum cash permitted on a fixedrate HECM, the managerial challenges are greater. This is because the reverse mortgage has no terminal date — it can go on as long as the borrower lives in the house — and the borrower always has an option to change the deal in ways indicated above.

THE SERVICER’S ROLE IS LIMITED I recently decided to see how the firms that service HECMs keep their clients informed. I did not get to look at all the servicing statements out there, but those I saw were very similar and I am sure they are typical. They do a good job of informing borrowers about the status of their HECMs at month’s end — including the loan balance, unused credit line, and interest rate — but they don’t project the transaction into the future. In particular, they provide no indication of how much home equity borrowers may leave in their estates. In addition, they do not indicate the borrower’s options to change the monthly payment or the unused credit line, or whether a refinance might offer better options.

A NEW TOOL As a result of this research, my colleague Allan Redstone and I decided to fill this gap with a spreadsheet. To my knowledge, it is the only tool of its type out there. It is on my website for anyone to use.

The spreadsheet has three components. The first can be viewed as an extension of the servicing statement, projecting the loan balance, unused credit line and homeowner equity into the future. The user can also play “what if,” changing the future interest rate and property appreciation rate that are used in the calculations.

The second component shows the borrower’s options to modify the transaction, by changing the payment or the payment term, drawing cash or repaying previous draws, or a combination. As with component one, the spreadsheet shows the implications of such program modifications for future values of the loan balance, unused credit line and homeowner equity.

The third component of the spreadsheet deals with the question of whether the program modifications the borrower entered in the second

component could be obtained more advantageously by refinancing into a new Kosher HECM. The borrower is a little older, which helps, and it is possible that the property appreciation rate during those years has exceeded the 4 percent rate that is used by the HECM program in calculating draw amounts; that would also work in favor of a refinance. Increases in interest rates, on the other hand, would work against a refinance.

The spreadsheet uses two live interest rates posted by the lenders who deliver rate data to my website. One is the lowest rate ignoring the origination fee.

The second is the rate corresponding to the lowest origination fee. This provides two independent measures of whether or not refinancing would be in the borrower’s interest.

The spreadsheet is a management tool for those who already have a HECM, which is not a large group — about a million. The spreadsheet, however, also aims at the potential market, which is enormous. Knowing that it will be easy to keep tabs on future options may encourage seniors who are on the fence to take the reverse mortgage plunge. ■

Long-term US mortgage rates barely budged this week, after marking their first increase of the year last week THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Long-term US mortgage rates barely budged this week, after marking their first increase of the year last week.

Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday the rate on 30-year fixed-rate loans was unchanged from last week at an average 4.19 percent. That was still sharply higher than a 30-year rate that

averaged 3.65 percent for all of 2016, the lowest level recorded from records going back to 1971.

A year ago, the benchmark rate stood at 3.72 percent.

The average for a 15-year mortgage ticked up to 3.41 percent from 3.40 percent last week.

After meeting this week, Federal Reserve

policymakers left the key interest rate unchanged at a time of solid economic gains but also heightened uncertainty surrounding the new Trump administration. At the same time, the Fed pointed to improved sentiment among consumers and businesses.

Many economists think the Fed will put off further rate increases until more is known about President Donald Trump’s ambitious agenda, or whether his drive to cancel or rewrite trade deals will slow growth or unsettle investors.

Mortgage rates surged in the weeks following Trump’s election in early November. Investors in Treasury bonds bid yield rates higher because they believed his plans for tax cuts and higher spending on roads, bridges and airports will drive up economic growth and inflation.

But mortgage rates reversed course in the first week of the year, falling after nine straight weeks of increases.

To calculate average mortgage rates, Freddie Mac surveys lenders across the country between Monday and Wednesday each week. The average

doesn’t include extra fees, known as points, which most borrowers must pay to get the lowest rates. One point equals 1 percent of the loan amount.

The average fee for a 30-year mortgage rose this week to 0.5 point from 0.4 point. The fee on 15-year loans also increased to 0.5 point from 0.4 point.

Rates on adjustable five-year loans rose to 3.23 percent from 3.20 percent. The fee remained at 0.4 point. ■

Living in a historic home can be a labor of love. The history and the distinct architecture of historic homes draw buyers to such properties, but what historic homes have in regard to history they often lack in the conveniences of modern life, forcing many historic-home owners to make renovations to bring their homes into the 21st century.

Historic-home renovations differ from other types of modifications. According to the Victorian Preservation Association, renovation is getting a home back to where it may have been when originally built, but making concessions for today’s lifestyle. Preservation is the act of maintaining a structure in its current historic state, and restoration is returning a home to its original state. Unless a homeowner plans to use an outhouse or live without electricity, the majority of work done on historic properties is likely to fall into the category of a renovation.

Renovating an aging structure can be fulfilling and help to make a home more functional. But make no mistake, such a renovation is a major undertaking. Before beginning, it pays to hire a professional consultant with expertise in renovating historic properties. He or she can inspect the property to determine which areas of the home are safe and which will need to

be upgraded. A professional inspection also can determine if any deficiencies lie hidden in the structure. Potential concerns can be toxic paints and other substances, building code issues, rotting and structural settling.

Professionals will know what to look for and guide homeowners accordingly.

Homeowners also may want to consult with a preservation association, community restoration group or general owner-builder group. These people can refer homeowners to the craftspeople and materials that will be needed for a job. Homeowners can request to see other historic properties in the area and learn what those owners did to maintain the integrity of a home when using newer materials.

Before any work is started, homeowners should find out if their home is listed with the National Register of Historic Places. According to the United States National Parks Service, property owners can do whatever they want with their property so long as there are no federal monies attached to the property.

However, the property owner should also contact his or her state’s historic preservation office, or SHPO. The SHPO is the state agency that oversees historic preservation efforts in each state, and there may be state or local

preservation laws that the owner should be aware of before renovating a historic property.

Craftspeople should have experience with historic homes and a sensitivity and appreciation of renovating older properties.

Homeowners always should see examples of a craftsperson’s work and verify references from each contractor before hiring anyone to work on the property.

Homeowners who want to include traditional hardware and other period details in their homes may be able to find quality replicas of historic milling materials, while others may want to scour antique shops or salvage yards for era-appropriate materials.

Historic renovations can be costly and have a tendency to go over budget because of unforeseen damage and hazards that have to be repaired so the building is up to code.

Going into the project with this in mind can help soften the blow of extra costs down the road.

Historic homes can be beautiful and appeal to buyers who appreciate the one-of-a-kind nature of older properties. Renovating historic homes may take time and money, but the results may be well worth the effort.

Many homeowners prefer the look and durability of real hardwood flooring. It can be exciting to install new flooring, and you may be anxious to start transforming a room. But before diving right in, it's necessary to acclimate wood flooring to a home. Otherwise, you may end up with buckled wood or other problems. Hardwood flooring needs to sit in the room where it will be installed for anywhere between five and

10 days or in adherence to the manufacturer recommendations. This gives the new flooring time to adjust to the humidity level and temperature of the home. Natural wood shrinks and expands due to temperature fluctuations, which is why it is essential to match the conditions in the home before working with the flooring. The boards can be acclimated in the boxes (with the ends opened) or outside of the boxes.

REAL ESTATE Q&A:

Let code compliance know about banned agricultural animals

Q: A:

There’s a trend in suburbia for people to get animals traditionally found on a farm. Normally, I have the philosophy that good fences make good neighbors, but your situation appears to have reached the tipping point.

As always, when you deal with a neighbor, your first approach should be to have a conversation, explaining the problem. With any luck, this will resolve the issue. If it doesn’t, you may have to take a more aggressive approach.

If you live in a homeowner’s association, check your rules. The large majority of planned communities ban agricultural animals. If this is the case, you should alert your management company, which should take care of the problem.

Most suburban municipalities ban, or severely limit, chickens and roosters in residential neighborhoods. If these animals are prohibited in your area, you can make a code compliance complaint and let your government officials know about the problem. Be aware, though, that you must go through the code enforcement department – not animal control.

5 Beds, 4 Bath, 4656 Sqft, 0.30 Acres. Soaring ceilings, spacious, sun filled rooms and tremendous outdoor living space. Main level office with leaded glass door is tucked off the entry. Library is its own oasis for tucking away with a good book. Great room and kitchen are ideal entertaining space with upgraded appliances, expansive granite island, double ovens, granite sink and upgraded cherry cabinets. Plantation shutters, wet bar, crown molding & storage.

BY GARY M. SINGER  TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICES

Several months ago our neighbor bought a rooster and chickens. We live in a block of regular houses, not in a farming area. Now every morning before the sun comes up, the rooster starts crowing and doesn’t stop for hours on end. I’m about to lose my mind. What can we do?

Finally, if nothing else works, you may need to sue. While we all are free to the reasonable use of our own properties, we can’t use the land in a way that interferes with the neighbors’ rights to enjoy their properties. The law considers this situation a nuisance, and you may sue to stop their actions, and possibly win damages.

While this sort of lawsuit can be difficult to prove because determining a nuisance is subjective, people have been successful in suing neighbors to stop foul odors, plaster dust from constant renovations, loud family arguments and even annoying wind chimes. The judge will try to balance your neighbor’s rights to use the property with your rights to enjoy your home.

Suing a neighbor can be time-consuming and lead to a severely strained relationship. But sometimes it’s the only solution short of selling your property and moving away.
