Why do I need Mortgage Protection?

Just think, what would happen if the primary breadwinner in your home suddenly lost his/her income source and was unable to make the monthly mortgage payments? How long can you sustain that lifestyle before knowing your greatest fears and worries would soon become a reality? You would undoubtedly eventually lose what you’ve worked so hard to obtain…your most prized asset…your home!

That said, let’s look at the factors that can affect a family’s ability to stay on top of their mortgage and make monthly timely payments:

The economy
These days, with a questionable world economy and with job security being a thing of the past, more and more people have become concerned with their short and long term financial security. Whether you live in a single or dual income home, the loss of either income happens to be the primary source of stress in most homes. Sadly, as more and more Americans get laid off and find themselves unemployed for longer periods of time, the loss of that much-needed income can quickly jeopardize a family’s ability to stay afloat and continually make their monthly mortgage payments. Just think, how long can you continue to stay in your home if you’re unable to make your monthly payments?

Illness or Death
No one can predict when a long term illness or premature death will occur. The only thing you can plan for or predict is that if/when this occurs, without having a financial plan in place, your loved ones may be put in a very difficult financial position. In the event of an unforeseen or unplanned financial disaster, mortgage protection or mortgage insurance plans can offer you and your family a considerable amount of protection and peace of mind and serve as the perfect financial safety net.

So how can you protect yourself and your loved ones from such a horrific outcome? Easy! Look into Mortgage Protection and find out if it’s right for you and if so, how can it help protect your home.
