Despite popular belief, you do not need to obtain Life Insurance in order to get a mortgage. The only insurance required by law when obtaining a mortgage is building insurance.
The main reason why people purchase Life Insurance is to ensure that their families can continue to pay the mortgage in the case of their death. If you are unable to make your mortgage payments, your family may be forced to sell their house and move out. Life Insurance provides a lump-sum payment, usually tax-free, that can be used to pay for a wide variety of expenses such as:
- Ensuring funds cover funeral fees.
- Providing money to their family after they’ve passed away.
- Paying off debts such as credit cards, personal loans, and mortgages.
- Paying for childcare support if the deceased was the primary caregiver.
- Providing financial support for their children in the future.
- Some terminally ill persons choose to use a portion of their life insurance to cover treatment costs or to cross items off their bucket list.
