To obtain a reverse loan mortgage you must be over 62 years old. Lenders can discriminate based on your age.

Lenders can discriminate based on your age. So you should be good unless you are trying to get a reverse loan and that is 62 years old

No, unless you are trying to get a reverse mortgage. That product does have an age limit to apply. You need to be 62 yrs or older.


Does age matter when applying for a home loan?
