Individuals without a life insurance policy or a history of health can get mortgage life insurance with no medical questions. There are several reasons you might consider this type or insurance. The application is quick and easy to fill out. It is important to note that premiums may be higher for those who are sick.
Term Life Insurance
The good news for borrowers is that there are now a number of insurance companies that offer term mortgage life insurance no medical questions. A mortgage that is less than one-year old may be eligible for $500,000 coverage. You can still get coverage up to $350,000 for those without a mortgage.
Term life insurance doesn't require a medical exam
Term insurance does not require a medical check. This policy can be obtained quickly and easily. But, it is important to be aware that no-medical-exam policies have their limitations. Some companies might not approve applicants who are in the final stages of their illness. Premiums can also be higher than traditional policies.
Mortgage life insurance doesn't require a medical exam
If you are unable to pay your mortgage, a mortgage life insurance policy will cover it. Mortgage payment insurance does NOT require a medical check and is not pre-approved. The amount of your mortgage will determine how much coverage you have. This means that your policy's worth will decline as you pay down the mortgage.
MPI has a declining death benefit
MPI is a form of mortgage protection insurance that is expensive and limited in scope. Most people only have one mortgage. It is most likely their largest debt. If the insured person dies, the family is often left with a large lump sum of money. Families dealing with the shock at losing a loved ones may make mistakes that can have costly consequences.
It's much more expensive that term life insurance
Mortgage life insurance without medical questions is generally more expensive than standard term insurance because mortgage life insurers are taking on more risk. If you are healthy and have not had any pre-existing health issues, this policy may be an option. Simplified underwriting policies also known as guaranteed acceptance policies or guaranteed issue policies have lower premiums. Death benefits can range between $100,000 to $250,000 depending on the insurer.
It's sold by your mortgage lender
Mortgage life insurance is a type of policy that will pay off the mortgage balance if you die. The coverage cannot be used to pay for funeral expenses, child care, or future educational costs. The benefits will be paid directly to your mortgage lender, and not to you or your family. Make sure you understand what you're getting into if you consider purchasing mortgage life insurance.
