We Understand What You're Going Through

Many seniors assume that retirement disqualifies them from getting a mortgage. In reality, federal law prohibits age discrimination in lending, and retirement income sources including Social Security, pensions, and retirement account distributions are fully accepted for mortgage qualification. With proper documentation and the right lender, buying a home in retirement can be straightforward and financially smart.

Solutions for Senior Homebuyer in Virginia

NMHL offers multiple pathways to homeownership for Virginia borrowers.

Conventional Loans with Retirement Income

Conventional mortgages accept Social Security, pensions, and retirement distributions as qualifying income. Non-taxable income can be grossed up 15-25% for higher qualification amounts.

Social Security accepted Pension income counts Non-taxable income grossed up

Asset Depletion Loans

If you have significant retirement savings, asset depletion programs calculate qualifying income by dividing your total liquid assets by a set number of months. This works well for retirees with large 401(k)s or IRAs who draw less than they could.

Based on total assets No required income Ideal for high net worth retirees

Reverse Mortgage Purchase

The HECM for Purchase program allows buyers 62 and older to purchase a new home with a reverse mortgage. You make a down payment (typically 40-60% of the price) and never make monthly mortgage payments.

No monthly payments Age 62+ eligible Down payment required
