Mortgage Life Insurance
Product Overview
Mortgage Life Insurance pays off or reduces the insured mortgage balance if the mortgage holder dies, relieving the family or co-homeowner of a major, long term debt - and helping them keep the home they love. All mortgage customers under age 70 are eligible to apply for it.
Features
- Pays or reduces the insured mortgage balance if homeowner dies.
- Benefit paid directly to the financial institution.
- The insurance does not terminate due to age.
- Joint coverage is available for half the cost of the older borrower.
- The cost is based on the age and loan balance at the time you apply, and the cost does not increase over time.
- Premium added to monthly mortgage payment.
- Six Month Return of Premium - After paying mortgage life premium payments for one year, half of the first year’s premium will automatically be returned by check to the insured person.
- Living Benefit - If you are diagnosed with a terminal condition, as defined in the policy, that leaves you with a life expectancy of twelve months or less, you have the option of accelerating your benefit while you are still alive.
Eligibility
To qualify for the plan, the applicant must be between the ages of 18 and 69 at the time of the application.
Length of Coverage
Once approved, coverage may be continued for the term of the mortgage loan, regardless of age, as long as premiums are paid. Coverage is portable and can remain in force even if the loan is refinanced or sold as long as premiums are paid.
Underwriting Requirements
There are three health questions. In most cases a medical exam is not required.
Premium Rates
Premium rates are based on the age and mortgage loan balance on the date of the insurance application. Joint coverage is available at 50 percent of the cost of the older borrower’s rate.
Exclusions
The plan does not cover suicide during the first two years of coverage.
