About CT Reverse Mortgage
Timothy Rourke - President & Ceo

He started a financial services company because he felt that 'Big Banks' were not properly fulfilling the communities needs. Tim's philosophy on reverse mortgages is that there is not a single other product in the marketplace today that can have a more beneficial effect on someone's life. He loves to tell stories of how CTreversemortgage.com has helped people to enjoy life without financial stress.
