Mortgage Protection

A Mortgage Protection Policy is an insurance policy that pays off your Mortgage in the event of the Death (or Specified Illness if chosen) of any of the lives insured on the policy. It can be structured as a Single Life Policy, Joint Life Policy or a Dual Life Policy.

The policy is generally taken out for the amount you are borrowing over the same time-frame as your Mortgage. The level of cover on a Mortgage Protection policy reduces over time, as the amount you owe on your Mortgage generally reduces over time. A Mortgage Protection policy is the cheapest policy you can choose to act as security on your loan.
