How much money can I get from a reverse mortgage on a Washington home?

The amount you can access through a reverse mortgage in Washington depends on your age (older = more access), the current interest rate (lower rates = more access), and your home's appraised value (capped at the HECM lending limit set annually by HUD). For high-value Washington homes in Seattle, Bellevue, or Mercer Island that exceed the HECM limit, proprietary jumbo reverse mortgages are available with higher access amounts. A local mortgage broker can model your specific scenario — the numbers look very different at 62 vs. 75.
