Insurance

Mortgage Protection Insurance is required by banks on all home loans.
If however there are medical circumstances or you are aged over 50, you may waive this requirement.

 

For Investment property loans, life cover is not mandatory but advisable.

 

Life Cover
Insurance is relatively cheap and there are three types of life cover / assurance

  • Decreasing Life Cover (Mortgage Protection)
    As the name implies, the mortgage balance is covered and as it decreases through capital being repaid, so does the life cover. This is the cheapest of the types of life cover available.

 

  • Level Term Assurance
    This means that the original sum borrowed is covered for the entire term, irrespective of what the balance is when the life assure dies. This is therefore more expensive than decreasing cover but would have better conversion options if you need to extend cover or change the original policy in any way.

 

  • Whole of Life Cover
    This covers you until you die for the whole of your life. This is the most expensive but the younger you start paying into this kind of policy the cheaper the premiums. Therefore you could take out life cover not only to pay off the mortgage but also to pay off your tax liability in the event of one of you passing on.
