A mortgage payment protection insurance plan still seen negatively
- 20TH DECEMBER 2007
Stemming from the investigation which started in 2005 mistrust and negativity has surrounded a mortgage payment protection insurance plan and as such a decline has been seen in taking out this invaluable cover. This is seeing many homeowners vulnerable and without anything to fall back on in the case of them becoming unable to work due to suffering from an accident, illness or unemployment caused by no fault of their own.
When the cover is bought with an individual’s circumstances in mind a mortgage payment protection insurance plan can give an income each month which could ensure you could carry on servicing your mortgage repayments without worry of having your home repossessed. Cover would begin to provide a tax free monthly sum once you had been out of work for between 31 and 90 days and would then continue for between 12-24 months.
You do have to check the exclusions as they exist in all policies with common ones being if you are working part time, are self-employed, suffering a pre-existing medical condition or of retirement age. Providing a policy is suitable then a mortgage payment protection insurance plan can be a lifeline and it does not have to cost a fortune when taken out with a standalone specialist provider.
