Mortgage Protection FAQ
What’s the difference between life insurance and mortgage protection?
People often confuse life insurance and mortgage protection. It’s an incredibly easy mistake to make. While mortgage protection is a life policy, it is not life insurance.
The difference is when a mortgage protection policy holder passes away the mortgage protection policy clears their mortgage debt with the bank.
Life insurance on the other hand is paid out in a lump sum after the policyholder passes away. This lump sum can be left to whomever the policyholder chooses.
Is mortgage protection mandatory?
Yes, when applying for a mortgage, a lender will insist that you have mortgage protection in place before approving your mortgage.
