Illustrates how a reverse mortgage balance compounds over time against projected property value, and the equity that would remain.
Not a "no repayment" product. A reverse mortgage does not require regular repayments, but the loan — plus all accumulated interest and fees — must eventually be repaid in full. This usually happens when the borrower sells the home, moves into aged care, or passes away.

No negative equity guarantee. Reverse mortgages regulated under the National Credit Act must include a guarantee that the borrower (or their estate) will never owe more than the home's net sale proceeds, even if the loan balance exceeds the property's value. This estimator does not cap the projected loan balance at the property value — in practice, the guarantee would apply from that point.

Actual interest rates, fees, maximum loan-to-value ratios and product features vary by lender and change over time.
