What is reverse mortgage and how it can help 2022

Reverse Mortgage loan
In May 2016, Vinoba Rao (80) and his wife Kalavati Bhai (72), owners of a house in Sultan Petty, Bengaluru, were found dead.
In their old age, they starved to death with no one to take care of them. Electricity connection and water connection four years ago
Disconnected. Vinoba Rao retired from the armed forces – the pension of a few thousand rupees was not enough for them.
The biggest tragedy in this is that they had their own house with a market value of one crore rupees!!!!!
Even though they own a house worth one crore rupees, they are living in poverty because of ignorance
Vinoba Rao takes a home loan and builds a house while they work. He owns the house by paying monthly installments for 20 years.
In India, the house reaches the status of Free Hold without any debt. We see many people like Vinoba retiring with a house and little cash in hand.
When their son or daughter is settled in a foreign country, they do not feel like going there, nor do they have the courage to buy and eat from them.
You have probably heard about banking, mutual funds, the share market, etc.
A reverse mortgage is an under-advertised boon for people like them and those wondering how to survive after their income stops.

Some more information on the reverse mortgage
As long as the owner of the house lives in the house, he is the owner and responsible for it. He has to pay house tax, maintenance, etc
Even if the owner of the house is alive for more than 20 years, he can continue to live in the house. But after 20 years the bank stops giving money
If the homeowner rents out the home, defaults on taxes or goes bankrupt, the bank takes over the home.
The reverse mortgage owner cannot mortgage or sell the house.
If the owner decides to sell the house, he can sell it only after first paying the amount due to the bank and bringing the house back to freehold status.
As of now, the maximum amount that can be availed through a reverse mortgage is Rs 1 crore.
Had Vinoba Rao known about reverse mortgages, he might have saved two lives. What we need to do is to prevent such deaths from happening again
This scheme is to be made known to retirees.
