Mortgage Insurance
Here’s why I strongly recommend this optional Mortgage Insurance:
60-day money-back guarantee
Review your coverage in detail for 60 days. If you change your mind within the first 60 days, you will get your money back.
Coverage can start immediately
No waiting. Your coverage can begin as soon as your application is successfully completed.
Coverage moves with you
Moving or changing banks? Your original coverage moves with you.
It’s about more than just insurance.
Your home may be your greatest asset, but at the end of the day, the most important thing in life is family. With the rise of illness,(1,2) household debt at an all-time high (2) and Canadians carrying bigger mortgages(3), financial protection is more important today than ever. That’s why Mortgage Protection Plan® (MPP) was created.
MPP is here for you and your family if the unexpected happens. It can help ensure your mortgage payments are made and your loved ones are taken care of. That’s some certainty in a future that’s uncertain.
44%
of MPP claims are made within the first 2 years of a mortgage.4
