Aug 29, 2015 /prREACH/ -- Hal Edwards has a background in business management and cost-reduction strategies. After selling his own business in 2012 he became involved in the forward mortgage business then he ultimately gravitated toward reverse mortgages. He was intrigued by the challenge to protect seniors and help them plan for their future, which in many cases is also their heirs’ future. He now works as a Reverse Mortgage Specialist with FirstBank.
Hal is personally familiar with reverse mortgages as his mother acquired one in the 90s. His mother’s reverse mortgage allowed her the financial flexibility to travel the country and see friends and family who, in some cases, she hadn’t seen in decades. Hal saw how beneficial his mother’s reverse mortgage was for her and that is part of the reason why he is so passionate about the product he now offers with FirstBank. He loves working to help seniors enjoy their retirement to the fullest.
