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.

Leslie Woods was incredible in all aspects of the purchase of our new home. She held my hand throughout the entire process and made it happen. We are happy campers and very grateful.

Leslie played a huge role in my home purchase, and she played like an all-star! She overcame many obstacles on my behalf through perseverance and creative problem solving. She was always reachable by phone whenever I needed her (which was often). And she was always calm, cool, and collected. Her hard-working ethos and aloha spirit leave me eternal grateful! 5 out of 5 stars!!!

The process was easy and efficient, Leslie was always available to answer questions, and we appreciated being able to do everything from our home. She is knowledgeable and very easy to work with.
Leslie Woods was wonderful, leading us through what could have been a rather complicated process. She helpfully advised us with information so that we could confidently put in house offers. My wife and I have bought our fair share of houses and condos in the past, and this has to be the best mortgage-application experience we have ever had. Mahalo nui loa!

Leslie is the ONLY choice for loans on the Big Island. She was extremely timely, razor-sharp in her responses, and came from a huge place of "let's get this done". She knows all parts of the process and is an expert at getting things unstuck. She even walked me through a 100 page document so I could pre-sign it and streamline the final loan approval while I was signing it off island. Literally amazing customer service and attitude. I cannot recommend Leslie strongly enough!
Leslie was able to solve any issue that came up and walked me through every step. I had total confidence in her and she was available to answer any question I had.
Leslie gave absolutely the best and timely advice throughout the entire loan process. She answered emails promptly, and called me when time was critical.
