Choosing the right protection can raise plenty of questions, particularly when policies, benefits and exclusions vary between providers. Here are answers to some of the questions Louisa is most frequently asked by homeowners and families across Newton Abbot and South Devon.
Mortgage protection is a broad term for insurance designed to help protect your home, income or family if illness, injury or death affects your ability to meet your financial commitments. This can include life insurance, critical illness cover and income protection.
Life insurance is not normally a legal requirement when taking out a mortgage. However, many homeowners choose to put cover in place so that their family could repay or reduce the mortgage if they died during the policy term.
Life insurance is designed to pay out if the insured person dies during the policy term. Critical illness cover is designed to pay a lump sum if the insured person is diagnosed with one of the serious illnesses or medical conditions included within the policy.
Income protection can provide regular payments if illness or injury leaves you unable to work. The amount paid, waiting period and length of time benefits continue will depend on the policy selected.
Yes. Protection can be particularly valuable for self-employed people who may not have access to employer sick pay or workplace benefits. Louisa can review your income, commitments and existing arrangements before explaining the available options.
The appropriate amount will depend on your mortgage balance, income, household expenditure, dependants, savings and any existing workplace benefits or insurance policies. Louisa will help you consider these factors rather than simply recommending an arbitrary figure.
Yes. Louisa can review your current arrangements and help you understand whether they still reflect your mortgage, family circumstances and financial priorities. You should not cancel existing cover until any replacement policy has been accepted and is fully in place.
