So what are we doing WRONG???
The survey reports that 7% of homeowners plan to take out reverse mortgages. So why are the highest estimates of reverse mortgage market penetration just 2%?? Does this mean that our education and marketing efforts are resulting in over 70% of those who say they would otherwise get a reverse mortgage not getting one?? Don’t allow your bias to make excuses or deny the results of the survey on its face. Rather there needs to be analysis performed to determine what the situation actually is.
If we automatically defend what we do, how are to learn from it unless we are doing everything perfectly well to begin with? Let not live in denial but send out analysts to determine what is actually going on.
