Mortgage Protection Insurance and PMI: What’s the Difference?
Mortgage Protection Insurance
Mortgage protection insurance would cover your monthly mortgage payments if you were to pass away while your policy is in force. Your family would receive a lump sum benefit that they could use to pay the mortgage payments so they could remain in the family home. As a homeowner, mortgage protection insurance helps you make sure your family is financially protected should anything happen to you.
Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI)
PMI protects the lender, rather than you and your family. If your family defaults on the mortgage, which often happens when the main breadwinner dies, the insurance company sends the money to the bank and your family loses their home. PMI is required for any mortgage in which the homeowner owes 80% or more of the home value.
