A mortgage is a major investment; the expenses involved in repaying it are considerable, and it’s clearly preferable to protect your loved ones by attaching life insurance to your mortgage. The Quebec insurance market can seem complex, with a multitude of offers from different insurers. But the experts at Assurancia can help you make sense of it all and choose the mortgage insurance that’s right for you!

Mortgage protection: mandatory?

Most banks in Quebec require that mortgage loans be accompanied by some form of protection. Homeowners are faced with two choices: take out life insurance linked to their mortgage, often provided by the bank itself, or take out independent life insurance, which includes coverage for their mortgage.

Both options have advantages and disadvantages, but generally speaking, it’s better to take out independent life insurance.

Mortgage life insurance offers many advantages, the most important of which are its flexibility and terms. By choosing term life insurance, for example, and linking it to your mortgage, you can choose not only the sum insured, but also the duration of your insurance coverage.

It is generally recommended to take out term life insurance to cover, for example, the duration of a mortgage repayment, i.e. 20, 25, 30 or 35 years. This insurance also makes it possible to avoid tax liability in the event of death. The amount paid out to the beneficiaries of your insurance policy is tax-free. It’s therefore a very interesting operation in terms of inheritance tax.
