Holiday Week Round-Up: Carson’s HECM Progress, Private Promise

RMD reported on Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson’s testimony before Congress, in which he praised recent changes to the program as key taxpayer protections designed to keep the Federal Housing Administration solvent.

We also brought you into a lively discussion about the fraught nature of reverse mortgage referrals, as well as reasons why industry leaders say the time is right for a significant expansion of private reverse mortgage offerings.

All of us at RMD hope you enjoy the holiday.
