Yes. You may move at any time. Unlike a Reverse Mortgage, you do not have to live in the property. You can move out of the property but will continue to share in the appreciation with EquityKey until you sell or pass. What if I want to sell? You may sell at any time…but, like a CD there is a penalty for early withdrawal since the real estate has not had sufficient time for appreciation. Costs at Early Sale = 50% of appreciation (to date) + Early Sale Charge …a sliding scale beginning in year 1 at 15% of IFMV and decreasing by 1% each year. After 10 years or upon death, there is no Early Sale Charge. Can I move this program to a new property? Yes, with approval No Early Sale Charge What if there is an existing mortgage? • You may qualify as long as the mortgage owed is less than 70% of the value of the home • OK if you have traditional 1st mortgage. • OK if you have Home Equity Line. Reverse Mortgages and other Negative Amortization loans are not allowed. What happens when a spouse passes away? If an EquityKey qualified homeowner passes, the surviving homeowner may : 1. Continue to own the property and share the appreciation with EquityKey. 2. Offer EquityKey the right to acquire the property, or 3. Pay EquityKey 50% of the appreciation and retain ownership of the property.
