San Jose is the largest city in Northern California and the Santa Clara County seat, a collection of distinct neighborhoods spread across the valley floor from Willow Glen and the Rose Garden to Almaden Valley and Evergreen. We help San Jose buyers, homeowners and investors with conventional, high-balance, jumbo, FHA and VA financing, refinances and equity lines. For many San Jose retirees, the home is their largest asset and their largest expense. A reverse mortgage can eliminate the monthly mortgage payment, provide a reserve for medical costs or home repairs, or simply make retirement more comfortable, and the homeowner keeps the title.

San Jose has the widest range of prices in Silicon Valley, from condos and townhomes that fit high-balance conforming and FHA limits to jumbo purchases in Willow Glen, Almaden and Silver Creek. Buyers are typically technology workers with stock and bonus income, and long-time owners sitting on large equity often use HELOCs and cash-out refinances to remodel, add an ADU or help family buy. A reverse mortgage is a non-recourse loan: neither you nor your heirs will ever owe more than the home is worth when it is sold. Heirs can keep the home by paying off the balance or refinancing, or sell it and keep any remaining equity. We explain these outcomes clearly to every San Jose family.

Housing includes 1920s and 30s homes in Willow Glen, the Rose Garden, Naglee Park and Japantown, 1950s to 70s ranch homes in Cambrian, Blossom Valley and Berryessa, larger homes in Almaden Valley, Evergreen and Silver Creek, and condos and high-rises downtown and near Santana Row. Our reverse mortgage process in San Jose begins with an honest conversation about whether it is the right tool, and sometimes it is not. If a reverse mortgage fits, we help schedule the required HUD counseling session, order the appraisal and guide you through closing, usually in four to six weeks.
Reverse mortgages can also be used to purchase a home in San Jose. The HECM for Purchase program lets buyers 62 and older combine a larger down payment with reverse mortgage proceeds to buy a new home with no monthly mortgage payment, which is popular with downsizers and those moving closer to family.
We help borrowers with a reverse mortgage throughout San Jose, including Willow Glen, Rose Garden, Almaden Valley, Evergreen, and across Silicon Valley. San Jose is a little over two hours from our Gold River office, and we handle San Jose loans by phone, email and e-signature.
