hi for an hecm reverse mortgage how many days out of the year must the property be owner occupied? writing for my grandfather who is relatively bi-coastal. he lives in his home about 75 - 80% of the year and lives alone. does this meet the general hecm requirements? by courtsside9837802 from Irvington, New Jersey.

If he lives in the house 75-80% of the time, he should qualify providing he meets all the other qualifications.
Check with your local lender as some lenders may have more restrictive requirements than HUD has established.
He is fine. He must maintain the home as his primary residence, which means he must "sleep" there at least 183 nights during a 365-day period.
