My wife and I studied the pros and cons of getting a reverse mortgage. Our decision was to at least talk with a professional about it. Our search took us online for those people who were Certified Reverse Mortgage Specialists. We review those closest to us and looked at their personal and professional qualifications. This led us to Melinda Hipp. She adequately explained the benefits and details of a Reverse Mortgage to our satisfaction. We made or decision to pursue the RM and Melinda guided us through each detail efficiently. We had already decided to stay in home as long as we are physically able. Now we are able to upgrade and improve our home for the years ahead without oppressive retirement indebtedness. We are grateful for the Reverse Mortgage.
Reverse Mortgage was a good move for me. I feel much more secure about the future. You and Susan did an amazing job. Thank you so much.
Because of the reality of not having a monthly mortgage payment, this has enabled us to enjoy more things in life. Melinda gave us a clear understanding of what the reverse mortgage was going to do for us and benefit us in our years ahead. Our entire visit with Melinda was handled very professional and we will certainly refer our family and friends to her in the future.
Melinda Hipp recently assisted us in obtaining a reverse mortgage on our country home. We were very impressed with the level of customer service we received from Ms. Hipp. Recent encounters with other loan officers gave us the opportunity to appreciate her work. She kept us informed throughout the process and was able to explain things in ways that we understood. She anticipated our needs on several occasions, usually involving information. As the loan process went forward, she kept us abreast of what was happening. In short, we were happy with the service that Ms. Hipp, along with her office manager Susan Parker, provided.
Judy and I both thank you for all of the help you gave us with our journey through the process of securing a reverse mortgage. When we first thought a reverse mortgage might meet our needs for additional cash flow, we had no idea of where to turn for help, or whom to believe. You provided unbiased material which explained how a reverse mortgage works, how to determine who is qualified and various alternatives for funding from 100% cash up front to a lifetime annuity. You never pushed us to make a decision and you or you assistance were always available whenever we had questions. You were also with us from the application through closing and funding. We could not ask for anyone to be more helpful or professional. With the equity we have in our home we were able to secure sufficient funds to pay off debt and receive monthly income to cover our cash flow needs without taking a second mortgage or sacrificing our standard of living.
I would like to thank you very much for your services! The reverse mortgage has brought me peace of mind and has enabled me to stay in my home. I appreciate your help and how you were able to solve last minute issues and close this transaction on time.
I am enjoying my new home; (purchased with a Reverse Mortgage for Purchase) have lots of “things” to put away yet but slowly am getting everything ready. I love the house! Thank you again for all you and your staff’s fantastic service, professional contact and hard work in finalizing this loan.
Melinda is detailed oriented and cares about getting the job done right the first time. She is definitely a team leader and a pleasure to work with.
