Answer: Reverse annuity mortgage

Step-by-step explanation:

A reverse annuity mortgage is a form of loan that is given out which is secured against the value of ones home.

A reverse equity mortgage allows the homeowner to cash some of the equity on the home without the individual selling the house or moving out. This is the type of loan that would best provide Henrietta the funds to make the necessary repairs.
