If at least one homeowner is staying in the home, and this person is at least 62 years old, you may be able to use a reverse mortgage to pay for care. Reverse mortgages can provide funds to pay for care as well as other costs and living expenses. A reverse mortgage can also eliminate mortgage payments or consolidate other debts, allowing you to redirect funds toward needed care and services.

- Receive the entire amount directly into your account.
Even with careful retirement planning, senior living sometimes comes with extra or unexpected expenses. A personal loan is a great solution to receive a lump sum of cash to support senior care, medical expenses, transitions or short-term projects like outfitting your home with a walk-in tub, stairlift or ramps.
