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
Reduced Documentation loans (No Doc, No Income/No Asset, Stated Asset, No Ratio)
These products may have higher interest rate, more points or more fees than other products that require more documentation, including income documentation.

Eddie went above and beyond, answering all my questions and ensuring I had all the information I needed to make the best decision for my situation. He's very personable and I would work with him in the future.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Eddie and his team came to use from a family referral. I can’t say enough about how much of a joy it was to work with Eddie and his team. The level of communication, client experience, and team work from Premier was unmatched! I highly encourage anyone to use Eddie and his team. They have a client for life with us.
Eddie was the best.
the most important thing I can say about Eddie,Jamie,Lindsay is I trust them, this (Eddie’s team) they are the most kind and generous team of Mortgage Lenders, they Earned my loyalty
Eddie and his team (Lindsay Spencer and Jamie Williams) are seriously the best ever! Being a realtor it’s important to me that I refer out only the best. I’ve trusted Eddie a couple of times with my personal purchases and I refer him to anyone who needs to get a pre approval. Above and beyond is an understatement. Top notch all around.
My husband and I bought our first home in California during an unbelievably bad housing market and economic time in August 2022. We had originally started this process with a different realtor and broker who came recommended by a good friend. But it was going very badly, and little did we know at the time that the other broker really didn't know how to do a proper VA Loan, and if we had continued with that broker we would have suffered even more with a surprise of financial responsibility at the end which would have cost us the home we really wanted.
Fortunately, we met Eddie Johnson and he really knew what he was doing. He truly worked hard to get us the best rate during this time of high-interest rates. He also knew the in and outs of the VA loan process. We had a lot of questions, and he took the time to answer every one of them even if we had asked the same question more than once. We were blessed to have worked with Eva Brown with Home Smart as our realtor and she and Eddie worked so hard to help us get this amazing home. My husband and I highly recommend these two people. Thank you again!
Eddie, Lindsay, Jamie, & the team at Premier Mortgage Resources are all rock stars! They made acquiring a loan stress free and extremely easy and FAST! I would highly recommend this company and we are customers for life!
We as a family completely trust Eddie for any loan related purposes. All our previous dealings with him have also been excellent and very well handled. He is so professional, dependable, trustworthy and makes the process of acquiring the loan stress free.
It is always a pleasure to work with him and I must add that this time it was also wonderful to work with Jamie. She was quite helpful throughout and they make a great team!
I highly recommend Eddie and his team!
Working with Premier Mortgage is by far the best experience I’ve had with a lender. Eddie and his team are truly amazing! They know how to navigate the complexities of the competitive market to their client's advantage. Throughout the lending process, the team was knowledgeable, helpful, and easy to work with. They kept me informed every step of the way and got my loan funded quickly. I highly recommend them to anyone buying or refinancing a home.
Eddie and his team were amazing to work with! As first time homebuyers, they were extremely informative and helpful with any questions that we had. I could not have asked for a better lender to work with and would highly recommend working with Eddie and Jamie. We are so thankful to them and couldn’t be happier in our new home!
We knew Eddie since 2017 and has been consistent every time we reached out to him! We would like to say thank you to you and your team! Every time we work together, the process is smooth! We definitely recommend anyone who needs a loan or even has questions, they will definitely help you! We will be in contact when we purchase our next home!
