How Do I Protect My Mortgage?

For most of us, the monthly mortgage payment is our biggest expense. But what happens if our financial situation changes, and we struggle to meet this cost? Mortgage protection insurance eliminates that worry by either taking over the payments when the unexpected happens or providing a lump sum if required. Even though a mortgage lender won't normally insist that you take out mortgage payment protection insurance, it's still something to consider. Protect your mortgage by ensuring that if you suffer a serious illness, die, or are unable to work through an accident, illness, or redundancy, you are covered.

Life Cover

Life cover provides a lump sum on the death or diagnosis of a terminal illness of a mortgage holder. This lump sum can be used to clear the outstanding mortgage, thus allowing any remaining family members to live in the property mortgage-free. If there are no family members living in the property, it allows the property to be passed to the estate mortgage-free, taking the stress away from those left behind during an extremely stressful and emotional time. This is one less thing to deal with, providing peace of mind and financial security.

Serious or Critical Illness Cover

Serious or critical illness cover is designed to protect the mortgage holder in the event of being diagnosed with a life-changing illness or condition. While the definition of serious or critical illnesses differs from providers, the essence remains the same. On diagnosis, a lump sum is paid to the policyholder with the aim of clearing or reducing the mortgage. This allows the holder to concentrate on improving their health without the financial burden of paying the monthly mortgage. Often, this option can be combined with life cover, thereby giving the holder peace of mind and value for money.

Income Protection

Income protection provides a pre-agreed monthly income to support the holder if they are unable to work due to illness, accident, or redundancy. Depending on the longevity and level of cover you want, combined with the conditions and options you require, this will determine which is the best policy for you. This type of protection ensures that you can still meet your mortgage payments even when your income is disrupted, offering a clear and easy solution to a potentially stressful situation.
