Although these costs may be substantial, AAG does not establish an escrow account for these payments. However, a set-aside account can be set up for taxes and insurance, and in some cases may be required. Not all interest on a reverse mortgage is tax-deductible and to the extent that it is, such deduction is not available until the loan is partially or fully repaid. AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium (where required by HUD), closing costs and servicing fees, rolled into the balance of the loan. AAG charges interest on the balance, which grows over time. When the last borrower or eligible non-borrowing spouse dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, or fails to comply with the loan terms, the loan becomes due and payable (and the property may become subject to foreclosure). When this happens, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to the borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan balance.

The feds turned over ownership of the dilapidated 127-year-old fixture to the city in 2009 in hopes that local planning officials could then find a new owner who would give the structure a new, public use. But no real plans ever materialized despite the city’s efforts to make something happen. Now the feds want back the deed to the lighthouse, and Chicago officials plan to oblige. We understand finding a new life for such a unique building is no easy thing. Plans to turn the lighthouse into a high-end hotel with a helicopter pad — that’s pretty imaginative — were ditched after developers realized it likely wouldn’t turn a profit. A sign urging social distancing is displayed Friday at the food court in a grocery store in northwest suburban Arlington Heights. NAM Y.

OPINION

Democratic U.S. Senate candidates Jon Ossoff (right) and Raphael Warnock of Georgia hold a rally on Sunday in Marietta, Georgia. JESSICA MCGOWAN/GETTY IMAGES

Democratic challengers representing hope and tomorrow. Both Republican senators, David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, are multimillionaires. (Loeffler is the wealthiest politician in Wash- ington.) Both were caught moving large stock transactions in the wake of secret briefings on the pandemic. Both support Republican efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Both oppose expanding Medicaid. Loeffler described herself in her ads as “to the right of Attila the Hun.” She touted her endorsement by QAnon believer running for the Congress. She was denounced as a “greedy insider” seeking to “profit off the pandemic” by her Republican opponent in the primaries. Loeffler is challenged by Rev. Raphael Warnock, the distinguished pastor at Dr. King’s famed Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta. He favors common sense in dealing with the pandemic, and bold action to put people back to work. He calls for defending the Affordable Care Act and its protections of pre-existing conditions and seeks to add a public option that will help lower prices and provide real choices.

NFL NOTEBOOK Despite woes at RB, Dolphins cut Howard The Dolphins released running back Jordan Howard on Monday. He signed a two-year, $9.75 mil- lion deal last offseason but gained only 33 yards on 28 carries and was inactive Sunday. “This was a mutual parting,” coach Brian Flores said. “Given the circumstances, Jordan handled himself professionally. He was the consummate pro. There were no issues. We just felt thiswas in the best interest for both parties.” With two other rushers in- jured, undrafted rookie Salvon Ahmed made his first career start and carried 21 times for 85 yards and a score. But the Dolphins still rank last in the league with an av- erageof3.6yardspercarry.

BEARS NOTEBOOK Patterson ties mark for KO-return TDs BY JASON LIESER, STAFF REPORTER [email protected] | @JasonLieser Cordarrelle Patterson matched the Bears’ seasonlong scoring total in the third quarter Monday night when he returned the opening kickoff 104 yards for a touchdown to give the Bears a 13-7 lead. Patterson’s eighth career kickoff return for a touchdown puts him in a three-way tie — along with Josh Cribbs and Leon Washington, who are both retired — for the most in NFL history. Patterson caught the ball in the north end zone while standing on the second “C”in “CHICAGO,” ran up the middle and broke toward the right sideline. Amazingly, he was never touched, beating the kicker last. According to NFL Next Gen stats, no defender got within a yard of Patterson, who ran 117.3 yards during his return. Whitehair back It won’t fix everything for the Bears’ faltering offensive line, but they got a major upgrade with the return of starting center . Whitehair injured his calf in the loss to the Rams on Oct. 26, then tested positive for the coronavirus and couldn’t play until he cleared the NFL’s protocol. The Bears activated him shortly before kickoff against the Vikings. Whitehair boosts a line that badly needed help. His return allowed the Bears to shift Alex Bars, who had been filling in at center, to left guard. They kept Charles Leno Jr. at left tackle, at right guard and Rashaad Coward at right tackle. Coward was a surprise because backup swing tackle Jason Spriggs was active after missing one game with a knee injury. Original starting right tackle Bobby Massie (knee) is on injured reserve. The Bears have additional time to get healthy, with the bye week coming up before visiting the Packers on Nov. 29. Since they drafted him 56th overall in 2016, Whitehair has been the Bears’ steadiest offensive lineman, starting 71 Cordarrelle Patterson, running with the ball during the first half, joined Josh Cribbs and Leon Washington as the only players with eight kick returns for touchdowns.

Quarterback Nick Foles leaves the field on a cart after suffering an injury while being slammed to the ground on an incompletion in the PATRICK FINLEY final minute. CHARLES REX ARBOGAST/AP BEARS BEAT

[email protected] | @patrickfinley

The Bears went from dull to di- saster in one play Monday night. When quarterback Nick Foles was carted off the field with an in- jury to his leg or hip with 37 seconds left in Monday night’s 19-13 loss to the Vikings, the Bears’ free-fall became official. As his teammates gathered around the cart to salute Foles after he was knocked down while throw- ing an incompletion, it felt funereal. The Bears’season wasalready on the brink. Monday night, it tum- bled over Niagara Falls. Entering their bye week, the Bears have lost four straight games and their only healthy quarterback is third-stringer Tyler Bray, who’d thrown one career pass before a dis- jointed last-second drive Monday. A month ago, the Bears had a chance to win on “Monday Night Football” to claim the best record in the NFC. They didn’t win then — or since — and now, at 5-5, seem head- ed toward even further disaster. Where does it end? Probably not with a win at the rival Packers af- ter the bye week. If the skid doesn’t stop soon, it could end with the removal of general manager Ryan Pace or coach Matt Nagy, or both, at the end of the season. The two have created a mess. Against an unremarkable Vi- kings defense, the Bears and new play-caller Bill Lazor totaled 149 yards, the fewest of the Matt Nagy era. When the Bears took posses- sion down six with 44 seconds to VIKINGS 19, BEARS 13 play, the Vikings had almost triple their offensive yards: 386-131.

THREE TAKEAWAYS Three takeaways from the Bears’“Monday Night Football” game against the Vikings: Harris’ mistake Fed up with Ted Ginn deciding to let punts bounce behind him, the Bears signed veteran Dwayne Harris two weeks ago to give an element of danger to their special teams. Monday night, he did just that — the wrong way. About three minutes into the third quarter, he muffed a punt at the Bears’ 20 that was recovered by the Vikings. He hurt his triceps on the play. The Bears then turned to Anthony Miller for the next punt return, and he ran for 12 yards. Bad start for Miller The Bears’ first two offensive plays were absolutely brutal for Miller, the third-year receiver. Blocking on a screen pass to Darnell Mooney, Miller was shoved into the rookie, practically making the tackle for the Vikings. On the next play, Miller ran a deep-in route, leapt for a Nick Foles pass, touched it with both hands — and let it carom to Harrison Smith for an interception.
