Mortgage insurance

Let's discuss a type of insurance that is specifically designed to cover the life of an individual who has taken out a mortgage. This form of insurance is known as decreasing term insurance and its purpose is to provide death benefits that can be used to pay off the remaining balance of a mortgage. As the name suggests, the coverage amount decreases as the debt decreases. However, there is also a variant of this insurance called mortgage unemployment insurance, which offers coverage for the mortgage in case the policyholder becomes involuntarily unemployed.
