Simply put, these specialty mortgages are equity loans created to produce income for homeowners without a monthly payment.

Who qualifies for a reverse home mortgage? If you are over 62 years old, live in your home with a decent amount of equity and any existing mortgage is close to paid off, you may qualify.
This differs from a traditional "forward" mortgage that considers credit scores, credit history, debt ratios, job history and income before issuing an approval.
