A HECM loan is repaid when the homeowner moves out, doesn’t meet the loan conditions, or passes away. The loan can be settled by selling the house or by using other assets if the borrower or heirs prefer to keep the house. Most importantly, the borrower or heirs won’t owe more than the home’s value.
