The HECM counselor must adhere to all of HUD’s guidelines and protocol regarding information that must be provided to the potential HECM mortgagor and must tailor the session to address the unique financial circumstances of the household being counseled.

Counselor Certification:

In accordance with Section 255 of the National Housing Act and 24CFR 206.41, I have discussed in detail the following items with the above referenced homeowner(s) and other participants

1. Options other than a HECM that are available to the homeowner(s), including other housing, social services, health and financial options.

2. Other home equity conversion options that are or may become available to the homeowner(s), such as other reverse mortgages, HECM for Purchase, HECM Saver, sale-leaseback financing, deferred payment loans, and property tax deferral.

3. The financial implications of entering into a HECM.

4. A disclosure that a HECM may have tax consequences, affect eligibility for assistance under Federal and State programs, and have an impact on the estate and heirs of the homeowner(s).

5. Whether the homeowner has signed a contract or agreement with an estate planning service firm that requires, or purports to require, the mortgagor to pay a fee on or after closing that may exceed amounts permitted by the Secretary or in Part 206 of the HUD regulations at 24 CFR.

6. If such a contract has been signed, the extent to which services under the contract may not be needed or may be available at nominal or no cost from other sources, including the mortgagee.

7. The HECM will be due and payable when no remaining borrower and if applicable, non-borrower spouse lives in the mortgaged property, or when any other covenants of the mortgage have been violated. The non-borrower spouse has been advised of implications and consequences of requirements to adhere to all terms of the HECM loan if the surviving non-borrower spouse choosing to remain in the property encumbered by a HECM mortgage (Borrowers are those parties who have signed the Note and Mortgage or Deed of Trust.)

I hereby certify that the homeowner(s) as well other participants required to be counseled listed above have received counseling according to the requirements of this certificate and the standards of HUD, as described in mortgagee letters, handbooks, protocols, regulations, and statute.
