Program Summary: This program examines the role of housing wealth within modern retirement income planning and explores how Home Equity Conversion Mortgages function from a structural, tax, and risk management perspective. Advisors will review current retirement challenges including longevity, inflation, market volatility, and mortgage obligations, and evaluate how home equity may influence cash flow modeling and sustainability analysis. Through case study application, participants will assess both the benefits and limitations of integrating housing wealth into a comprehensive financial plan. As retirement complexity increases, advisors must understand all major asset classes, including real estate, to provide thorough and fiduciary focused guidance that enhances client outcomes.
