FINALLY! THE HONEST TRUTH BEHIND THE REVERSE MORTGAGE
by Travis Schultz, Owner and Licensed Mortgage Broker, Smart Mortgage
Are reverse mortgages not all they’re cracked up to be? Can they truly add the stability you need for financial planning and your retirement, or are they just another way to steal away your home, equity or inheritance? Since the product began back in 1989, local Prescott reverse mortgage expert Travis Schultz at Smart Mortgage says we may be surprised with the honest truth behind the reverse mortgage!
• No mortgage payments for life? – (True) As long as either spouse considers the property as his or her primary home, they can live there for life paying zero mortgage payments.
• All applicants must be 62 years old or older – (False) Only one spouse needs to be 62 years old. The other spouse may be younger.
• You must own your home outright –(False) You may already have an existing mortgage, which can be refinanced and paid off with a reverse mortgage.
• The income or cash I receive is not taxable – (True) Any money you receive, whether monthly, a cash sum or in a home equity line is all nontaxable to do with as you wish.
• You must have good credit and income for a reverse mortgage – (False) Since re-
verse mortgages do not require a mortgage payment, almost anyone with any type of credit and income may be eligible.
• Once into the reverse mortgage you are locked into it, permanently – (False) The reverse mortgage is simply a loan recorded against the property, just like every other mortgage. You retain full ownership, so at any time you can move, sell or refinance the property simply by paying off the mortgage balance.
• If I take out a reverse mortgage, I will leave nothing for my family – (False) Reverse mortgages have insurance automatically built in to protect the family. Most homes continue to increase in value over time, leaving even more equity for family. Even if property values decrease below what is owed, the family can acquire the property for 5% less than market value.
• You can only get a reverse mortgage on a one-unit home – (False) Smart Mortgage also allows reverse mortgages on manufactured homes, duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, townhomes and condos, as long as one unit is considered your primary residence.
• My family will be responsible for the debt – (False) The reverse mortgage is a non-recourse loan, so if your value ever
falls below what you owe, your family will never have to pay the deficiency.
• The government or lender will own my home – (False) The reverse mortgage is simply a lien recorded against the property, just like any other mortgage. The homeowner(s) remains on title and has full ownership. The owner(s) may also add other family members or place the home in a trust, so family automatically has ownership in the property and equity, as well.
• You can purchase a home using a reverse mortgage – (True) Smart Mortgage allows you to purchase a primary home and the financed amount has no payments for life.

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University’s
Advance Aeronautical Design Class
Test Flights, With the Chino Valley Model Aviators
The Chino Valley Model Aviators hosted a test flight on the club’s 700-foot asphalt runway for students from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University’s Advanced Aeronautical Design class. For this course, participants select a student-designed UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle, or “drone”) aircraft and then build and assemble it for testing, using fiberglass, aluminum and other standard full-size aircraft materials.
“Some of their designs fly well, some don’t but whether they fly or not is not as important as the design, build, wind tunnel testing and all that goes into developing a UAS (Unmanned Aerial System) aircraft,” said club member Bob Shanks, a former ERAU adjunct professor. The problems the students encountered in December included the UAV being too heavy for the power-to-weight ratio and poor tail wheel design, he reported.
“The classes learn so much, so if the student design selected flies that is great, but the learning curve is the most important aspect,” he said.

Exhibit at Sharlot Hall Museum Opens
For God, gold and glory!
They came...they saw...they conquered. Whether trapping for beaver pelts, seeking a navigable waterway, mapping a route to the West, or grasping for the geologic riches, they came to a land called Arizona.
Who were they? What did they find? And why was the area we know today as Prescott ”undiscovered country” until the middle of the Civil War?
The new exhibit invites you to join in “Exploring Arizona” - from its rich topography and geology... to its historical impact on settling the wild, western Frontier. From earliest Spanish explorations to the mountain men vying for beaver pelts... from adventurers seeking pathways to riches or miners seeking mineral wealth or ranchers and farmers seeking new beginnings... all this was found by “Exploring Arizona.”
The exhibit identifies how Arizona is defined by its terrain and measured by its mineral resources... how it was surveyed and mapped to clarify its topographical opportunities for progress. It continues today as a vast oasis of adventure. Learn how “Arizona” got its name, the trials and trevails of its earliest explorers, and the progress made by those who chose to settle and build in the wild west frontier.
The Museum is located two blocks west of the Courthouse Plaza at 415 West Gurley Street, Prescott. For information, call (928) 445-3122 or view the website:

Facts Franklin D. Roosevelt: He was the first president to name a woman to his Cabinet.
Judy Bluhm
Dear Judy,
My husband and I made an offer on a two-story house in Prescott. We really love it, but the home inspector found quite a few things wrong. Particularly the back deck railing is loose and unstable. Evidently it was built by the owner and between rotted wood, huge gaps that a child could fall through, plus coming loose – it is unsafe! We asked for a new railing to be installed by a licensed contractor. The buyers have refused and said they would have a ‘handyman tighten the bolts.” Our offer was full price and I am ready to cancel. My husband is not so sure. What do you think?
~ Mad Buyer
Dear Mad Buyer:
I feel your disappointment. No clear answer here, except it appears this railing must be removed and a new one reinstalled by a contractor. You have choices. Cancel the contract (assuming you are in your inspection response time) and receive the earnest deposit. Or, get a bid from a contractor what a new railing will cost and ask the seller to credit you at closing x amount to cover the railing replacement. Or ask that the railing be replaced prior to close of escrow. If the seller refuses, then you can cancel. I guess it also depends on how much you love this house, how much railing is required, and what other factors are involved. Good luck with your decision! Safety is paramount!
