Description

Equity Protection Insurance is a unique financial safeguard designed to protect the equity—the value you’ve built over time—in your home. This form of insurance helps ensure that in the event of unforeseen life events, such as death, disability, or critical illness, your investment in your home is preserved for your loved ones.

What Is Equity?

Equity is the difference between your home’s market value and the amount you owe on your mortgage. As you pay down your loan and your home appreciates, your equity grows—and so does your financial stake in the property.

What Equity Protection Insurance Covers:

• Loss of Income Protection: Helps cover mortgage payments if the policyholder becomes disabled, critically ill, or passes away—preventing foreclosure and protecting the equity built in the home.
• Death Benefit: Pays off the remaining mortgage balance upon the policyholder’s death, allowing surviving family members to retain full ownership and access to the home’s value.
• Optional Riders: Additional protection can be added, such as job loss coverage or living benefits for serious illnesses.

Why Equity Protection Insurance Matters:

Without protection, a sudden life event could force the sale of the home—possibly at a loss—diminishing or eliminating your equity. This insurance helps secure your home as a long-term asset and prevents the erosion of wealth you’ve worked hard to build.
