Ever feel like your house is your biggest piggy bank? Seniors are getting creative with their home equity—either taking out a loan for a lump sum or trying a reverse mortgage for steady cash flow without monthly payments. The big shift? More retirees are using their homes to cover rising costs instead of just relying on Social Security. If you want more control and plan to leave your house to family, a home equity loan might be your move. Need extra cash and don’t mind using up your home’s value? A reverse mortgage could be your safety net. #RealEstate #HomeEquity #RetirementHacks
