A fresh perspective from Patrick Daly returns to explain a powerful, underutilized option: using a reverse mortgage to purchase a new home. This isn’t about eliminating payments alone—it’s about gifting seniors the freedom to stay in the neighborhoods they love while upgrading to a right-sized home with less cash out of pocket.
