EP – 153 Learning about Flex Mortgages

Stephen Gomes joins us this week to talk about Reverse and Flex Mortgages. Stephen does a great job explaining how the different lending options or products are indeed a step up from what was available back in the 1970s and 1980s. Like many of you, I didn’t know how much these products had changed or if they had changed from their early incarnations.

I brought up with Stephen many of the preconceived ideas and stories that I had heard about reverse mortgages. You will enjoy and appreciate how Stephen uses everyday examples and easy-to-understand language to step us through the many different options and scenarios he and his group, OPTIO Financing, work with every week.

It was so great talking with Stephen that I invited him to come back on the podcast to discuss his grandfather’s influence on him while he was growing up.
