Home Buying Hacks for Retirees

As they approach retirement or are already across the finish line, we’ve noticed that more and more of our clients are looking to sell their homes and move into a condo or townhome. And while that typically wouldn’t be an issue for retirees who own their home completely, there actually are quite a few hoops they may have to jump through. On this week’s edition of Dollars & Sense, Marc and Marion discuss the difficulty of securing a home loan as a retiree, why many retirees are looking into home loans at all, and whether moving is actually a good choice in retirement.   A full complement of Dollars & Sense broadcasts found here.   DISCLOSURES: During Dollars & Sense with Freedman Financial, your host, Marc Freedman, may discuss specific financial planning and investment ideas.
