About HECM (Reverse Mortgage)
At the conclusion of the term of the reverse mortgage loan contract, some or all of the equity in the property that is the subject of the reverse mortgage no longer belongs to you and you may need to sell or transfer the property to repay the proceeds of the reverse mortgage from the proceeds of the sale or transfer or you must otherwise repay the reverse mortgage with interest from your other assets.
We may charge an origination fee, a mortgage insurance premium, closing costs or servicing fees for the reverse mortgage, all or any of which will be added to the balance of the reverse mortgage loan
The balance of the reverse mortgage loan grows over time and interest is charged on the outstanding loan balance.
You retain title to the property that is the subject of the reverse mortgage until you sell or transfer the property and therefore you are responsible for paying property taxes, insurance, maintenance and related taxes. Failing to pay these amounts may cause the reverse mortgage loan to become due immediately and may be subject to a tax lien or other encumbrance or to possible foreclosure; and
Interest on a reverse mortgage is not deductible from the person’s income tax return until the person repays all or part of the reverse mortgage loan

Chris and Liz were outstanding making sure our loan happened. The service, follow-through, and communication was point on. Although our situation was tough, their persistence and understanding it o my helped make this loan happen, but helped my family deal with stressful times. I have other friends that will be moving to ID, and without question I will recommend Chris Bruce, and the Premier Team.
When my husband and I were first recommended to Chris, we didn't think we had any chance at getting into a bigger home. We almost gave up a few times but every challenge that came our way Chris was able to walk us through it and made the process so much easier. He was quick to respond to calls or texts at any time, day or night. He answered our bazillions of questions and was incredibly kind and patient with us the entire time. Not only is Chris extremely knowledgeable about the home loan process but he is also an amazing person. He is so energetic and you can't help but be happy and excited after every conversation with him. Buying a home can be a really stressful thing, but with the right team, it doesn't have to be. Thank you for being a part of our team Chris!
We were finishing up anesthesia school in Wisconsin when we accepted a job in Boise and applied for a loan to purchase a home, so our situation was not ideal. Chris took on the challenge. He went above and beyond to get us approved for a loan so we could build a home and have it ready by the time we moved to Idaho. We hit a few bumps along the way but Chris handled it. We were even able to close on our original closing date! (Not with out some Chris magic…it was a close call there in the end) Chris was very accessible and helpful when I had questions or concerns. I would definitely recommend Chris, especially if your situation is a little complex like ours was.
Chris is a GREAT Loan Officer and will work hard for you! He knows his stuff!
Chris Bruce and Elizabeth Losh are amazing! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a loan. They saved us after we had troubles with another business. We saved so much money going through this company and we were able to complete our loan without any problems.
Chris Bruce and Elizabeth Losh made our first home purchase the most amazing experience. Chris was phenomenal at keeping us informed and up to date on everything that was going on with our home purchase, right up to the closing. Liz was also awesome with letting us know what was what, so we didn't have hardly any questions through the whole process. Even if we did, we knew we could ask Chris get answers right away. Chris is not just our lender, he's become a good friend. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Chris and Liz!! – The Elsey Family – FIRST TIME HOMEBUYERS!!!!!
Chris Bruce did a awesome job for my client. I’ve been selling Real Estate for 23 years. I have always been reluctant to use a “out of town” lender. I was wrong whenever I get a chance ,I will refer all my clients to Chris. He’s very professional and always available to answer a question. Response quickly to email and text. Don’t hesitate to call Chris Bruce. Thank you , Leonard Ferrigno Lc advantage realty, llc
Chris Bruce went out of his way to make sure I was approved and everything was in order for closing. This was a long process because of a few roadblocks. Chris hung in there to make sure we closed!!!! He has the patience of Job!!!! If you need a mortgage company, premier Mortgage and Chris Bruce is a great choice!!! THANKS CHRIS I am now a home owner.
Chris went out of his way to get our manufactured home loan. A great guy! I would reccomend him.
Chris helped my wife and I with refinancing our home for renovations. He was very knowledgeable and quickly had answers to the questions we had. By far the best and easiest home refinance we have ever done. We will always recommend chris and will use him in the future for our construction loan!
Thank you Chris!
Chris made the refi on my house an absolute breeze! He knows his stuff and is super personable. Any questions I had were answered promptly and in detail. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a badass loan officer, thanks again Chris! #hypebeast
Chris is awesome and easy to work with. He is knowledgeable about a lot of topics. He is even running for office, and is very involved with his community!
Chris was so helpful with our refinance. We were up a creek without a paddle with our financial situation. But Chris was never judgemental or discouraging of what we wanted to do. Thankfully, it all worked. He is very quick to respond to phone calls, text, and emails. He also works with a great team. Thanks for everything Chris!
Two years ago Chris helped me get into my home.
Just closed on my re-finance. I was happy to remove the PMI and pay off some bills!! Chris did an awsome job. This time I think we finished in a month!!!!
Thanks again Chris♡♡♡♡
Chris is the best loan officer I have ever had the pleasure to have working for our house purchase.
My daughter is a 1st time home buyer, and we had a dream to buy land and put up a modular home. After trying several land parcels, we kept going over our budget. Chris tried everything to make it work, but it just wasn't in God's plan. After 6 months of frustration we went with an existing house. Chris was so helpful and so upbeat during this time. God really put him in our path. The final loan he got for her was awesome.
I have worked with many loan processors in my own home buying and refinancing that I can honestly say he is the best and he truly cares about his customers. He shows God's caring and patience.
Chris will work his best for you. He also is top ranked in communications.
Thank you Chris and God bless you.
Chris has now helped us with two home loans and one re-fi. He has always gone above and beyond to make sure our loan works, and gets our mortgage where we’re comfortable. He is thorough and always communicates through the whole process (and always has cool shoes on)
Chris was great to work with and really went the extra mile to get my family a great house for a price we can afford. Will definitely use his services again in the future.
Chris was wonderful and extremely helpful in the process of us buying our first home! He was always available and answered any questions I had. His flexibility and hard work is worth being noted! I highly recommend Chris and Premier Mortgage Resources. Thanks, Chris!!
Chris was definitely a pleasure to work with he was very prompt on returning phone calls and gathering information for me but I need it not to mention he was very patient with me and I'm very grateful for that. He was a pleasure to talk to you on the phone we had some good laughs and he was very informative with all of my real estate needs and not having much knowledge in it. He definitely went out of his way to find the best deals for me and any assistance available out there he's definitely a great asset to this community for sure
Chris has helped us over the last few months through building a house! This is our second home and Chris made the process so easy and smooth! It was nice to know who was handling our loan and who we could call if we had any questions! Made the house building and buying process so much easier!!!
Chris and his team did an outstanding job always keeping me informed of what was going on on their end and letting me know what I need to be doing on mine. Then changing from a rural development type loan to FHA loan Chris made the transition very easy and worked above and beyond to get me the right loan at the best rate and assistance that I needed he's definitely a great asset in the mortgage field
Chris you are the best, without you several deals would have not happened. We appreciate all the hard efforts to close our loans and more very much value your friendship. Please keep up the great works and say thank you to the entire team.
Chris helped me and my growing family greatly in purchasing a house. Will definitely use him again should the opportunity arises.
Thanks, Chris
Chris did my official loan when we purchased my home; he then did my recent refi and worked to not only get us the best rate, and accomplish everything in a timely manner. I not only would recommend Chris to everyone, but anytime I do a loan again, or purchase another home I will use Chris. Professional; polite; and gets the job done.
It was fast and easy working with Chris. He was friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend Chris.
Chris is amazing! This is the 2nd time we’ve used him for our loan. We wanted to refinance quickly and he made it happen! Start to finish was 10 days! We definitely recommend him for any loan needs 🙂
This guy is an absolute rockstar. At such a busy time he was able to get our refinancing done quick and painlessly I could not recommend a better man to help you with your loan process!
Chris helped us with refinancing our home. He answered all questions we were unsure of. We couldn’t be more happy with the end results. We would refer him to others.
Chris did a simply amazing job of working with us to get us in our home. He was a joy to work with, and exceedingly knowledgeable in the workings we had no clue of. Very highly recommended.
My husband and I are first home buyers. Coming into this situation we really had no idea what we were doing! Chris did an absolutely amazing job helping us know what we needed and helped us understand the process. The communication was amazing and we were always informed of changes or the next steps that needed to be taken in order to get into our home. Thank you for everything Chris!
From day one Chris walked my wife and I through everything we needed to do, as well as kept us up to date on a regular basis of the progress of our first home. Great company and great guy! I would recommend him to anyone!
Chris communicated with us all thru the process. He was always ready to assist and went the extra mile. We thank you Chris for your professionalism and knowledge. We will use him for all our mortgage needs in the future.

Chris was so great. He really went the extra mile helping us. He always responded quickly to all our questions we asked. We would definitely recommend him when looking for a loan officer. Thanks again Chris for all the hard work you put in for us.
Chris Bruce was an outstanding loan officer. We would highly recommend him to any of our friends or family. He provided sound guidance and recommendations to us whenever required and his confidence in those recommendations helped us throughout the entire process of obtaining and funding our loan. His expertise and attention to detail was outstanding. We were very fortunate to have him as our loan officer.
Chris really went above and beyond for us (my husband and I) as first time homebuyers. He always called us back when he said he would, he always followed up, and he was great at answering all our (many) questions. We are so excited to be homeowners now! Chris came recommended to us by family, and we are glad we chose Chris/Premier. We will be recommending him to others in the TV who need a home!
Know what he is doing. Doesn’t hide the truth. He will bat for you to the fullest. He is not scared for a challenge. He will answer any time. Great guy. His shoe game is strong !
Chris Bruce, almost 4 years ago helped us purchase our 1st home, now he has continued to help us through a refinance, we definitely had some bumps along the way but Chris hung on and to us, he worked a miracle and we will never forget what he made happen for us.
Also along the way Evelyn Lemke helped us and honestly I could not put a face to her but she walked us through everything and responded super fast and made a very difficult info-gathering journey not so hard because she helped me. Responding super fast is important and she never once let me down. This amazing lady needs a lot of being noticed for her amazing people skills and you can tell that she loves what she does
Thank you Chris and Evelyn for helping us!
Thank you Premiere Mortgage Resources.
