Mortgage Protection: Keep Your Family in Their Home

Coverage structured around your home loan, so your largest debt never becomes your family’s burden.

Mortgage protection is life and living-benefits coverage structured around your home loan, so that if something happens to you, your family can stay in their home without the pressure of the mortgage. Owning your own policy, rather than the one the bank offers, usually gives you more control and better value.

Why It Matters

Your Home, Protected on Your Terms

Covers the Mortgage

Provides the funds to pay down or pay off the home so your family can stay.

You Own the Policy

When you own the coverage, you control the beneficiary and the amount, not the lender.

Coverage That Does Not Shrink

A personal policy keeps its full value even as your mortgage balance falls.

Portable Between Homes

Your own policy moves with you, so you keep it when you switch lenders or homes.

Can Include Living Benefits

Add critical illness or disability features so the mortgage is covered in more situations.

Often Better Value

Personal coverage is frequently more flexible and better priced than bank mortgage insurance.

Who It Is For

Who Mortgage Protection Suits Best

Anyone carrying a mortgage should know how it would be handled if their income stopped.

New Homeowners

Protect children through the years they depend on you most.

Growing Families

Make sure children keep their home and stability.

Anyone With a Mortgage

Cover the largest debt most households carry.

Bank-Coverage Holders

Compare against the coverage the lender signed you up for.

Common Questions

Mortgage Protection, Explained

What is mortgage protection?

It is insurance arranged around your mortgage so that the loan can be paid or covered if you pass away or, with added features, become seriously ill or disabled.

Is it the same as the bank’s mortgage insurance?

Not quite. Bank mortgage insurance is owned by the lender, names the lender as beneficiary, and shrinks as your balance falls. A personal policy is owned by you and stays at full value.

Why own my own policy?

Because you control the amount, the beneficiary, and what the money is used for, and you keep the coverage even if you change lenders or sell the home.

Does the coverage decrease over time?

With bank mortgage insurance it typically declines with your balance. A personal life insurance policy holds its value, so any difference can go to your family.

Is it just life insurance?

At its core it is life insurance sized to your mortgage, but you can add living benefits like critical illness or disability so the mortgage is covered in more scenarios.

Can I keep it if I move?

Yes. Because you own the policy, it moves with you between homes and lenders, unlike coverage tied to a specific mortgage.
