Yes, about 3% of the appraisal value of the property. Most, or all, can be paid from loan proceeds at closing.
Regardless of what you have been told, all loans have closing costs.. including reverse mortgages.. (think about it.. no one will work for free, right?).. Costs can be paid in a few different ways.. you can bring cash to close, you can add the costs to the loan or you can choose a higher interest rate and have your lender pay the costs with their added income from the higher rate.. but in all these scenarios, you're the one paying..

Closing costs are necessary for any mortgage to pay for the services of all the parties involved in the transaction. Typically in a Reverse Mortgage (HECM) the costs are paid from the loan proceeds and no out of pocket monies are required. There are several options for paying those costs that the Loan Officer can discuss with you prior to submitting an application. I am the Reverse Mortgage specialist for my branch here in PA and I would be happy to discuss your options anytime. Call me at 484-668-1566
