PACE loans attach to your property tax bill as a lien. This makes them difficult to refinance because most traditional mortgage lenders will not subordinate to a PACE lien. The PACE assessment takes priority, creating complications for any refinancing attempt.
PACE interest rates can be high, and the assessments run for 10 to 25 years, adding thousands per year to your property tax bill. Over time, the total cost grows significantly. Selling your home becomes complicated because the PACE lien transfers to the buyer, making the property less attractive and harder to sell.
Many homeowners who signed these agreements did not fully understand the long-term financial implications. The cumulative cost of a PACE assessment can be substantial, and your options for refinancing are limited because lenders avoid taking secondary position to a PACE lien.
A reverse mortgage may provide funds that you can use to pay off the PACE assessment balance. Once paid, the PACE lien is removed from your property and you no longer owe the PACE company any future payments.
Because a reverse mortgage uses your home equity as collateral, it does not require a subordination agreement. Our proprietary program may be able to work with PACE situations, subject to underwriting. The reverse mortgage provides the funds you need to settle the obligation and move forward.
With no monthly mortgage payments required*, you eliminate both the PACE burden and gain monthly payment relief. This is particularly valuable for retirees on fixed incomes who are struggling with high PACE assessments each year.
*Borrowers remain responsible for property taxes, homeowners insurance, and HOA fees. The reverse mortgage provides funds to pay off the PACE assessment; it does not eliminate other home ownership costs.
Traditional refinancing usually will not work because lenders will not subordinate to a PACE lien. Our proprietary reverse mortgage may be able to work with PACE situations, subject to underwriting. This gives you an option that other programs cannot provide.
Our reverse mortgage program may provide the funds to pay off your PACE assessment. Because we use your home equity as collateral, we are not bound by the subordination restrictions that traditional lenders face.
