    About
    David Wesonga is a retirement mortgage specialist focused on the strategic use of home equity within modern retirement-income planning. Through StrategicHousingWealth and the HomeFundsCare™ initiative, David helps retirees, pre-retirees, and professional advisors understand how HECM Equity Mortgages and proprietary 55+ equity solutions can function as risk-management and income-coordination tools, rather than last-resort loans. His approach is deeply informed by leading academic and practitioner research from experts including Dr. Wade Pfau, Barry Sacks, Jamie P. Hopkins, Don Graves, Harlan J. Accola, Dan Hultquist, Craig Lemoine, Shelley Giordano, Dr. Stephen Sacks, Harold Evensky, John Salter, and others, whose work emphasizes: • Longevity risk management • Sequence-of-returns risk mitigation • Tax-efficient income sourcing • Coordinated asset withdrawal strategies • Aging-in-place planning David is not a direct lender and does not believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, he works collaboratively with: • Financial advisors • CPAs • Estate-planning attorneys • Real estate professionals • Care and aging-services providers The HomeFundsCare™ framework ensures that housing wealth decisions support financial sustainability, lifestyle goals, and family considerations, especially as health, markets, and longevity risks evolve over time. David is known for his educational, pressure-free style, helping clients and professionals alike make informed decisions rooted in clarity, compliance, and long-term thinking.

    Disclaimer
    *The borrower must meet all loan obligations, including living in the property as the principal residence – must pay and keep current property taxes, hazard insurance, HOA fees, and property maintenance. We do not establish an escrow account for disbursements of these payments. A set-aside account can be set up to pay taxes and insurance and may be required in some cases. If the homeowner does not meet these loan obligations, then the loan will need to be repaid. The loan is repaid when the borrower or qualified non-borrowing spouse no longer lives in the home. The balance of the loan grows over time and the lender charges interest on the balance. The loan also becomes due and payable (and the property may be subject to a tax lien, other encumbrance, or foreclosure) when the last borrower, or eligible non-borrowing surviving spouse, dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, defaults on taxes, insurance payments, or maintenance, or does not otherwise comply with the loan terms. Interest is not tax-deductible until the loan is partially or fully repaid. •HUD HECMS REQUIRE PAYMENT OF INITIAL AND PERIODIC MORTGAGE INSURANCE PREMIUM. •When the loan is due and payable, some or all of the equity in the property that is the subject of the reverse mortgage no longer belongs to borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan with interest from other proceeds.**NOTE: The HECM LOC is not available with all loans or to all borrowers. It is only available on adjustable-rate products where there are funds available. The Line of Credit (LOC) will only grow if there are funds in it. If there are no funds in the LOC, then there is nothing to grow. It is possible for there to be no LOC funds available to a client with an adjustable-rate HECM when the entire principal limit was used to pay off their previous mortgage loan balance. Reverse Mortgage loan to value based on borrower age, home value, principal limit factor, and interest rate. ***Proprietary Jumbo products, excluding Massachusetts, New York, and Washington, where the minimum age is 60, and North Carolina, Texas, and Utah, where the minimum age is 62.
