Do I Need Life Insurance for My Mortgage?

Life Insurance For My Mortgage

Do I need life insurance for my mortgage? The simple answer is yes!

Let’s face it for the average person today in the United States the largest expense will be the home that they purchase for themselves and their family to live in. Most people choose the home they live in for the location, school district, night life, etc. Regardless of the reason why a home was chosen, the home is very important to a family’s stability. Most families require dual incomes to afford the home that they are living in. Ask yourself, could you afford your mortgage payment on a single income? If the answer is no, then you need life insurance.
