Meet Janice & Dave:
Janice & Dave have lived in their 1950’s bungalow in Toronto’s Danforth village for over 35 years. They purchased their home in 1987 for just over $160K and it is now valued at $1.45M. Both Janice and Dave are retired and looking for strategies to maximize their retirement income and are hoping to do some traveling. They met with a SafeBridge mortgage agent who told them about reverse mortgages and how they could leverage up to 55% or $797,500 of their home’s equity through a reverse mortgage. They worked with SafeBridge to get their reverse mortgage in place and were thrilled that they were able to travel to Africa on their first but certainly not last Safari experience.
