HECM Trends – September 2017

HECM endorsements were up 18.1% in the first three quarters of the year, to 42,839 loans. Some places around the country have done much better though:

  • King County, WA has risen 61.5%, to 491 loans
  • Seattle is only 28% of that, meaning a lot of the growth is happening

That means most of the growth has come outside the city itself, and using our Scorecard we can easily see that the highest volume zip codes are all east of downtown.

We can also see that volume in the Seattle metro area has been growing steadily:
