Not having coverage

Many people believe they can live without life insurance. This common error can lead to thousands of dollars in losses. It is safe to assume you are self-insured if you don’t have a policy. An accident that leaves you without 10 years of income in the bank could result in financial distress for your loved one.

Many people mistakenly assume that life insurance is too costly to get. There are many life insurance companies available, each with their own pricing and treatment options for various medical conditions. It’s worth doing your research and looking around to save money. Do not hesitate to purchase life insurance if you feel you don’t require it or it is too costly. These are both common myths.

Not Enough Coverage

You’ve finally made it through the purchase of a policy. But you are still anxious about the cost. Your solution is to choose a policy that has a lower face amount, such as $100,000. Although it is important to have some coverage, you should also consider whether the amount that you choose will cover your family over time. This will help you pay your mortgage. Help your children get through college

We see people with policies that cover $426,756 or more often than not. These individuals aren’t randomly selecting their lottery numbers for their coverage amount. These are people we know who spent time calculating how much coverage they needed. To calculate future expenses, income replacement and debts for your family, use a worksheet. Your family may not be able to use a one-size fits all approach.

Non-payment of the Premium on a Term Policy

Many life insurance companies offer a grace period of thirty days for you to make your premium payments. You could still get your policy reinstated if you skip this grace period. There are strict guidelines for reinstatement from carriers. Some carriers will allow you reinstate within 60 days of missing payment, while others may require you to undergo underwriting all over again. Life insurance is the type of purchase that you should make and keep. You should not let your policy expire without reminding yourself in a prominent calendar to pay the premium before the reinstatement period ends. You will need to apply for a new policy if you are unable to reinstate. You can save your time!

Do not shop around

You can find some companies online that offer the lowest prices. However, if you have a medical condition you should ensure that the carrier has an accurate view before you apply. It is worth checking the financial rating of the company. It’s worth doing some research. It is often impossible to do this without an experienced agent. Make sure you choose an independent agency that can compare rates from many companies and recommend the best one for your needs.
