Before buying insurance from your bank to cover your mortgage, be sure to consider your options.
What does the insurance cover?
- From the bank: only the balance of your mortgage.
- From us: whatever you need it to cover, including other debts, lines of credit, final taxes, funeral costs, leaving money for your loved ones.
What happens as my mortgage balance decreases?
- From the bank: the coverage amount decreases as your balance decreases.
- From us: the coverage stays the same for as long as you own your policy.
What if I switch banks?
- From the bank: You might lose your coverage and need to reapply.
- From us: Your coverage stays the same, since it’s not tied to your mortgage.
Who gets the benefit if I die?
- From the bank: the bank
- From us: You decide who gets the insurance and how to use it, such as to pay your mortgage, medical expenses or child’s education- whatever is best for your family
