Whether you want to offset rising property taxes or simply enhance your retirement income, Florida’s Best Reverse Mortgage Company provides the local expertise to help you stay in the home you love.

WPB Real Estate

Sophisticated Solutions for WPB Real Estate

In a market where the midpoint for single-family homes now sits at $3.5 million, “one-size-fits-all” lending doesn’t work. We offer two primary paths to financial freedom:

Home Equity Conversion Mortgages (HECM)

The most popular HUD-approved program, the HECM, is federally insured and designed for homes falling within the national lending limits (up to $1,249,125 in 2026).

Growing Line of Credit: Perfect for WPB seniors who want a flexible "rainy day fund" that increases in value over time.

Monthly Payment: Receive a steady check to supplement your lifestyle.

Jumbo Reverse Mortgages

For high-value estates in areas like Ibis or waterfront properties along Flagler Drive, a Jumbo Reverse Mortgage allows you to access equity up to $4 million or more, far exceeding FHA limits.

No Mortgage Insurance: Private jumbo loans often waive the upfront mortgage insurance premiums required by HECMs.

Lower Age Requirements: Some proprietary programs are now available for homeowners as young as 55 years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a reverse mortgage help with my property taxes?

Yes. Many WPB residents use their line of credit specifically to pay for their annual property taxes and insurance. This allows you to stay in your home comfortably, even as Palm Beach County millage rates and assessments fluctuate.

How does the interest rate affect my loan?

While the interest rate determines how your loan balance grows, you are never required to make a monthly payment. The loan is only repaid when the last borrower leaves the home or the property is sold.

What happens to the title of my home?

You retain 100% ownership and the title to your home. The reverse mortgage is simply a lien, similar to a traditional loan, that is satisfied when the home is eventually sold.
