Mortgage Payment Protection Insurance
by: Gary Tallon
A mortgage is often the single biggest financial
commitment that many people make during their lifetime, yet fewer than
half of all residential mortgage holders choose to take on protection of
their mortgage repayment ability with mortgage protection insurance.
Mortgage protection insurance, or mortgage payment
protection insurance, is a form of insurance that ensures mortgage
repayments are met should the mortgage holder become unemployed, fall
critically ill or be unable to earn income due to an accident. This type
of protection insurance product is quite cheap to maintain, and allows
mortgage holders to set an insurance amount for monthly protection pay-out
that covers mortgage costs and additional expenses up to a set percentage
above mortgage outgoings.
Most mortgage payment protection insurance policies are
strict on protection insurance claims. For instance, should the mortgage
holder become unemployed through their own free will, then they would not
be covered by the mortgage payment protection insurance policy. However,
redundancy does qualify for payment through the protection insurance
policy, providing that the mortgage holder actively seeks new employment.
Additionally, mortgage protection insurance may not pay out if the
claimant takes on voluntary or part-time work, although the protection
insurance terms & conditions relating to this area will vary with each
type of mortgage payment protection insurance product.
Typically, mortgage holders will have to endure a
mortgage payment protection insurance qualifying period before receiving
payment protection pay-outs. The qualifying period on mortgage payment
protection insurance policies is normally 90 - 120 days. If the mortgage
holder is still eligible for mortgage payment protection insurance after
this period, then protection payments are commenced on a monthly basis.
Insurance companies often require holders of mortgage
payment protection insurance to renew their mortgage protection insurance
claim every month by completing a form. Sometimes the insurance companies
will request evidence from the mortgage holder so they can evaluate the
mortgage holder's eligibility for the continuation of mortgage protection
insurance payments. This could be a doctor's note of illness or copies of
job applications if claiming mortgage payment protection insurance pay-out
because of redundancy. Mortgage payment protection insurance pay-outs are
normally paid directly into the mortgage holder's bank account one month
in arrears.
Pay-outs on mortgage payment protection insurance are
often limited to a set insurance period. Depending on the insurance
company, monthly protection payments over six months or twelve months from
the first mortgage protection pay-out is normal. As two out of every ten
people who are made redundant take over a year to re-establish themselves
in a new job, mortgage payment protection insurance could mean the
difference between keeping your home or losing it.
