Proud to share that an article that I had written and submitted to the Journal of Financial Service Professionals, which is published by the National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors (NAIFA), was accepted and will published in their November issue.
The article, entitled "The Potential Benefits of a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage" explains how a reverse mortgage should be considered by financial advisors, CPA's and any financial professional when doing retirement planning for seniors. This FHA mortgage product should also be considered by realtors for their senior buyers when they have a client looking to "right-size" into a smaller home.
The Journal of Financial Service Professionals is peer-reviewed; meaning 3 outside reviewers determine if an article for submission will be accepted. Because of this process, over 55% of article submissions are not used by the publication. Doing this was definitely outside of my comfort zone, but it shows that challenging oneself can be very rewarding. I encourage others, no matter if it's in your personal life or your professional life, to do the same.
