John K. (JK) Lunde’s Summary
Reverse Mortgages are one of the fastest growing liquidity tools in the US, filling a hole in the retirement landscape as traditional pensions and Social Security retreat in availability and importance. The industry is 1-2% penetrated in the fastest growing demographic segment in the nation and has seen explosive 50%+ growth in each of the past 4 years. As the baby boom generation swells the ranks of seniors over the next two decades, the market opportunity will only continue to grow.
Whether you've been in the industry for years or just looking to enter, RMI can offer information and advice to fast-track your efforts in Reverse Mortgages. The industry is similar to traditional forward mortgages, but can you really afford to take chances on understanding where it's different? If you're serious about Reverse Mortgages as a growth opportunity, let's talk.
