Reverse mortgage market closes out October with positive gains

Reverse mortgage volume inched upward last month, continuing its uneven road to recovery after a rough year. According the latest HECM Lenders report from Reverse Market Insight, endorsement volume rose 7.3% in October to 3,091 loans. “We are expecting a very slow and lumpy growth for the foreseeable future in HECM volumes,” said RMI President John Lunde.
