Senior Home Equity Exceeds Record $10.6 Trillion

Housing wealth continued to grow by 3.98 percent ($405 billion) in the fourth quarter, reaching $10.6 trillion from Q3 2021. According to the recent quarterly release of the NRMLA/RiskSpan Reverse Mortgage Market Index, the increase in older homeowners’ wealth was mainly driven by an estimated 3.7 percent ($452 billion) increase in home values.

NRMLA President Steve Irwin, said: “May is Older Americans Month, and this year’s theme is Age My Way.” According to Irwin, a comprehensive retirement plan considers housing wealth as its greatest asset, and under the right circumstances tapping into that equity will enable a secure path to aging security.

Senior borrowers can age “their way” by developing and exploring the right avenues toward retirement.
