I've got 2 colleagues in-office that focus on the reverse world. I refer the occasional reverse request I get over to them and they do a nice job.

For HECMs you need to use an FHA approved lender. HUD has a site where you can search for one.

It has become a specialty. Last time I asked, it was someone at Presidential Bank Mortgage that gave me a name, but never ended up using him so I don't remember his name. Sometimes Reverse Mortgages are called HECM's by some which means Home Equity Conversion Mortgage. One federally insured, and one isn't I think.

Do some research on the cons of a reverse mortgage and then talk them out of it. There are better options.

When I needed someone quite a while ago, my lender at fairway mortgage here in charlotte put me in touch with someone at fairway. I would think there's a fairway mortgage lender in your area. If you need a name at fairway email me. I'm in Russia now and some 10 hours ahead of you, but will get back to you.
