About Mortgage Life Insurance

When you own a mortgage, you are often offered a mortgage protection plan by your lender. This is a plan that insures your mortgage against your death and pays the outstanding balance, taking the responsibility away from your family members.

But there are some significant downsides to getting a mortgage insurance plan from your lender that we believe Canadians should consider. There are other options to choose from that offer more comprehensive coverage with more freedom and flexibility.

Mortgage insurance from your lender

Plans from your lender seem attractive but are not actually owned by you, the homeowner. Rather, Mortgage insurance from your lender is paid to your lender and not to your family members, leaving them with little in the way to replace your income and continue their standard of living when you're gone.

What this facet of lender coverage means is that your mortgage is paid off, but your loved ones aren’t looked after during a difficult time. Everything from your final expenses, daily living costs, debts and future costs like educational fees for children, are all left to your surviving spouse to cover after you pass away.
