Vazquez of Reverse Mortgage Plus (NMLS #401212) is a bilingual broker who handles the entire process in Spanish, and the federally required HUD counseling is also available in Spanish from independent HUD-approved agencies.

Reverse mortgage en español: what it's called and how it works
In Spanish, a reverse mortgage is a 'hipoteca inversa' — you'll also hear the more colloquial 'hipoteca reversa.' They mean the same thing: an FHA-insured loan (the HECM) that lets homeowners 62 and older convert part of their home equity into tax-free cash with no monthly mortgage payments, while keeping ownership and title. The loan is repaid when the last borrower sells, moves out permanently, or passes away.
Why a bilingual broker matters
A reverse mortgage involves important decisions about your home, your equity, and your heirs. Understanding every detail in your own language — not a rushed translation — helps you make a confident, informed choice. Miguel walks you and your family through the estimate, the disclosures, and the ongoing responsibilities (property taxes, insurance, upkeep) in Spanish, and is available by phone or in person across Southern California.
HUD counseling is available in Spanish
Before any reverse mortgage moves forward, federal rules require an independent counseling session with a HUD-approved agency. This counseling is available in Spanish from independent counselors, and it exists to protect you — it is not a sales call. Our free Counselor Finder tool lets you search HUD-approved agencies by ZIP code and language so you can complete this step comfortably in Spanish.
