Understanding Mortgage Protection Insurance

What is mortgage protection insurance?

Mortgage protection insurance is designed to provide peace of mind and financial security for you and your family in the event of your death. This type of insurance pays off your mortgage if you pass away during your mortgage term and assures that your family will not risk losing their home if you are no longer able to provide for them. Mortgage protection insurance is a safety net, providing your family with much-needed financial support and stability, even after you are gone.

What does mortgage protection insurance cover?

Mortgage protection insurance covers the remaining balance of your mortgage at the time of your death. In line with your mortgage balance, the coverage typically decreases over time so that it remains affordable and applicable to your requirements. In some cases, mortgage protection insurance can also cover critical illness, providing a payout if you are diagnosed with a serious illness that prevents you from working and paying your mortgage.

Mortgage Protection Insurance Terms

At Lightbulb Lending, we are dedicated to helping you find the right type of mortgage protection insurance, tailored to your unique requirements. The terms and costs for mortgage protection insurance are determined by your age, health and the remaining amount to pay on your mortgage.

Why Choose Mortgage Protection Insurance

  • Financial Stability
    Mortgage protection insurance provides your family with financial security and stability. In the event you pass away, they can continue to live in your home.
  • Peace of Mind
    Dealing with loss is challenging, and mortgage protection insurance provides peace of mind that your family won’t be burdened by financial worries once you’re gone.
  • Affordability
    Premiums are generally more cost effective in the first instance as the cover decreases in line with the balance outstanding instead of a higher premium for level cover.
