Mortgage Protection | Folsom, CA

Mortgage Protection Insurance for Folsom families.

Mortgage protection insurance is a term life policy sized to what you still owe on your home. If you die during the term, the benefit goes to the person you named rather than to the lender, so your family can clear the loan and stay where they are instead of selling under pressure.

Your rate

Match the coverage to what you still owe

Ron sizes the policy to your remaining loan balance and the years left on it, so you are not paying for protection the house does not need. Four answers is enough to start.

✓ Benefit goes to your family, not to the lender
✓ Term length set to your payoff date, not a round number
✓ Stacks on top of life insurance you already own

Any figure named on this site is a sample estimate for illustration only, not a quote or an offer of insurance. Ron prices your actual policy after a short conversation.

This is not PMI, and the difference is who gets paid.

Private mortgage insurance is required by your lender when the down payment is under twenty percent, and it protects the bank if you default. It pays your family nothing. Mortgage protection insurance is optional coverage you choose, and it pays your beneficiary.

Questions

Mortgage protection questions

How is mortgage protection different from PMI?

PMI is required by your lender and protects the bank if you default. Mortgage protection is optional coverage you choose, and it pays your beneficiary rather than the bank, so they can clear the mortgage and stay in the home.

Do I have to use the payout to pay off the mortgage?

No. The benefit goes directly to your named beneficiary, who can use it however they need.

Can I get this if I already have life insurance?

Yes. Many clients layer a term policy sized to the mortgage balance on top of existing coverage so the house is specifically protected.

Will my premium change if my health changes later?

On most level term policies the premium is locked for the term regardless of later health changes, though this depends on the specific carrier and product.
