What Is Mortgage Protection Insurance?

Mortgage protection insurance is a specialized form of life insurance designed to provide financial security for your family by paying off your mortgage in the event of your death.

This insures that your loved ones can continue to live in their home without the burden of mortgage payments if you pass away unexpectedly. It is structured to align with the term of your mortgage, providing coverage for the duration of your loan.

• Pays Off Your Mortgage: In the event of your death, the insurance policy pays a lump sum directly to your mortgage lender to cover the remaining balance of your mortgage. This allows your family to retain ownership of the home without financial strain.

• Protection Period: The protection period of the policy typically matches the term of your mortgage, whether it’s 15, 20, or 30 years. During this time, if you pass away, the policy ensures that your family is protected against losing their home due to mortgage obligations.

• Full Mortgage Coverage: The policy is designed to provide full coverage for your mortgage balance, ensuring that your family does not have to worry about making monthly mortgage payments during a difficult time.

• Financial Security: Provides peace of mind knowing that your loved ones can remain in their home without the financial burden of a mortgage after your passing.

• Interest-Free Savings Account: Acts like an interest-free savings account that pays off your mortgage in full upon your death, ensuring your family retains ownership of the home without the stress of monthly mortgage payments.

• Living Benefits: Some policies may offer living benefits, allowing you to access funds if you are diagnosed with a critical illness or become permanently disabled, providing additional financial support when needed most.

• Return of Premiums: Certain policies may offer a return of premiums feature, where you receive a refund of premiums paid if you outlive the policy term without making a claim.
