  1. While I see Harlan’s point and congratulate him on his actions, many of the HECMs that I originated in the prior decade would not provide adequate proceeds to allow the borrowers to take such vacations as well as pay off their existing mortgages; the majority were house rich but cash poor. However, for those who are in Harlan’s financial situation, such vacations may be a great idea depending on their relationship with their family.

    Are HECMs for everyone? Should people go into debt to do what Harlan and his family did? I strongly believe that reverse mortgage vacations can be appropriate just not for all. However, there is nothing wrong in recommending it!!
