FIRST, DEFINE THE PRODUCT

Mortgage protection is usually life insurance—not mortgage insurance.

“Mortgage protection insurance” is a marketing term often used for life insurance intended to help a beneficiary manage a mortgage or other housing costs if the insured person dies. Depending on the policy, benefits may be level or decreasing and may be paid to a person or, in some arrangements, directly to a lender.

It is different from private mortgage insurance (PMI), which generally protects a lender from borrower default, and different from homeowners insurance, which covers specified property and liability risks.

COMPARE THE CONTRACT, NOT THE LABEL

Questions for any mortgage protection offer.

Mortgage protection products can differ materially. A conventional term-life policy with a level benefit may also be used for a mortgage-related goal, while some lender-marketed products use decreasing benefits or name the lender as recipient.

  • Benefit: Is it level or decreasing, and who receives it?
  • Term: Does the coverage period match the years of household need?
  • Underwriting: Which health questions, exams, waiting periods, or exclusions apply?
  • Portability: What happens after refinancing, selling, or changing lenders?
  • Premium: Is the price guaranteed for the full term?
  • Conversion: Can term coverage convert later, and by what deadline?
