Why Seeking Life Insurance Advice in Leeds is Important

The Importance of taking out Life Insurance in Leeds

What Insurance is Right for you? | MoneymanTV

Life insurance gets designed to pay out, usually in a lump sum, in the event of death.  Regarding your mortgage, the sum assured should be enough to pay off your outstanding balance, here is where our Protection Specialist Advisors in Leeds can guide you. Here is some information about the most popular types:

The whole of Life Insurance

The whole of life insurance does not have an end date; therefore, providing premiums is being met the policy will payout. This type of insurance is used for family protection and as part of inheritance tax planning. 

Term Assurance

Term assurance is the most popular type of family insurance used to cover a mortgage. Our Protection Specialist Advisors in Leeds will recommend the sum assured and term of the policy, usually to run in line with your new mortgage. The providing that all premiums are maintained, the sum assured will be paid out if you were to die during the term. 

There are various types of Term Assurance available, such as decreasing and increasing cover. As part of our protection review, the most suitable policy for your needs will be recommended when we provide you with relevant Mortgage Advice in Leeds tailored to your situation.

Family Income Benefit

This is another version of Term Assurance, where instead of the sum assured is paid as a lump sum on death, gets paid as an agreed monthly payment.  It’s very good for families looking to insure an income. A good Mortgage Protection Specialist Advisor in Leeds will usually recommend a mixture of insurance types tailor-made to match your personal and family requirements. 

Joint Life Insurance

If you are part of a couple, you could consider taking out a single life policy that will payout in the event of one of you dying. It can be cheaper than paying the premiums on two separate policies but bear in mind that joint policies only payout on the first death, after that the cover ends. 

If you had two separate policies, the second policy would remain in force even after a claim got made on the first, and this is where our Protection Specialist Advisors in Leeds can offer guidance.

Death in Service

Many companies offer their employees family a lump sum payment if the staff member dies while the firm employs them, this doesn’t mean the death has to be at the workplace or any way related to the job. The cover will most likely end as soon as you leave the company.
