Through my time helping Seniors with reverse mortgages I regularly run across homeowners who say their reverse mortgage has been turned down by another reverse mortgage lender.
In most of those cases, I have been able to take the turned down file and close it with anther lender (over 50% of the time). As long as its not because of low equity but for most other reasons.

A few of the examples of which I have been able to take a turned down reverse mortgage and close it.
~ Unique Property Type
~ Appraisal Issues (in some cases can be resolved)
~ Log Homes
~ Private Road Issues
~ Other Title Issues
~ Trusts
~ Manufactured Homes
~ Foundation Issues
~ Underground Homes
~ Home Repairs
~ One borrower under age 62 and one over.
~ In some cases small shortfalls.
There are many reasons why a homeowner may be turned down from a lender, I will be glad to give you a 2nd opinion.
I only do reverse mortgages and am able to get a quick idea as to whether or not I will be able to help with your reverse mortgage. Experience does make the difference, with 7+ years of helping Seniors achieve their retirement goals with reverse mortgages, I am glad to say very few offer more experience than I.
I have many happy clients who were previously told no by another lender that I was able to help!

I own a log home in a rural area and was working with a lender to do a reverse mortgage. I was told by the lender that their investor required that all sales comparables be log homes that have been sold within a 20 mile radius. That is extremely restrictive, especially in this economy, and may prevent us from being able to get an appraisal. Is that a common requirement in the reverse mortgage industry?
