Patti Schiappa, Reverse Mortgage Consultant
 Patti's
career as a reverse mortgage consultant
originated as the result of her own experience
helping her father evaluate the various
considerations of a reverse mortgage. A true
skeptic at first, the more she learned the more
she realized the potential impact reverse
mortgages can have in improving the security and
quality of life for seniors. This experience
motivated Patti to make a career change,
concentrating her time and energy on serving the
needs of other seniors and their families as a
reverse mortgage consultant at Harbor Mortgage
Solutions.
Patti is a licensed real estate agent and is pursuing her
accreditation as a Certified Senior Advisor
(CSA). She is also a member of the South Shore
