Answer to Question 1

A reverse mortgage is an option where a lender pays the homeowner monthly payments. An advantage is that the loan does not have to be repaid until the property is sold, the homeowner dies or no longer uses the home as a primary residence. The primary advantage is to supplement income to retired or elderly homeowners who have significant equity in their homes but no other assets or sufficient retirement savings.

Answer to Question 2

B
