Mortgage Protection
Your homeowners policy protects the house. This protects the people in it.
Homeowners insurance covers the structure and the lender. If the person paying the mortgage becomes seriously ill, is disabled, or passes away, the payments don't stop — and a family is rarely in a position to make big financial decisions in the months after a loss. Mortgage protection is built to buy that time.
- Pays off the balance in full or in part so your family can stay in the home
- Can cover monthly payments for a set period during illness or disability
- Return-of-premium and cash-value options if you never need to use it
- Customized to your balance, your family, and your budget
of foreclosures and bankruptcies are tied to a medical event, by some estimates. The illness is rarely the plan — the missed payments are what follow.
