Help your clients protect their largest asset. For most families, their home is their largest asset and financial responsibility. What if there was an uncomplicated solution to help your client’s family remain in their home if they were to die unexpectedly? BasicSecure Fixed Universal Life Insurance is a permanent life insurance solution that can help protect your client’s home and family, and replace the lost income from the insured’s death – all in one policy.

3 Reasons to Talk to Your Clients Today About Using BasicSecure as Mortgage Protection:

  1. Their home in many cases is their largest asset.
  2. The death benefit can be used to protect their family’s financial future, should the unthinkable happen.
  3. There is such thing as mortgage life insurance, but the mortgage lender is the beneficiary of the policy rather than beneficiaries your client designates. If they pass away, their mortgage will go away, but their loved ones won’t see any of the proceeds.

Take the time today to educate your clients on BasicSecure. Mortgage protection is just one of the many benefits for which BasicSecure can be used. For more information and marketing resources, visit:
