Hi Linda,

If you mean commercial property that you don't live in full time, then it's unlike ly that you can get a reverse mortgage on it. Today most reverse mortgages require that the reverse mortgage be on property that is your primary residence.

Depending on what state you live in you may want to check out one of the new Home Equity Conversion products - some of these allow you to use commercial property, however these are only offered in a few states today.
