If you want to use life insurance to pay off your mortgage when you sadly no longer walk this world, you'll need to make sure your level of cover matches your mortgage debt. If it’s going to take another 15years to pay off your mortgage, your insurance term should also be 15 years. If you want your policy to pay off other kinds of debts, make sure you've got enough cover.

For mortgages and other debts, you'll want to choose one of these:

Decreasing Policy: Covers your mortgage in event of a loved one passing away.

Level term Policy: Pays a fixed sum if you die during the term. If you have an interest-only mortgage, meaning the total debt never reduces, a level term policy can give you the cover you need.

Think about why you might need to take out new life cover

Before you take out a life policy there are a number of reasons why you should take out insurance, some of the main reasons are:

• What would happen if you died or were ill for a period of time?
• Who are your financial dependents: your partner, children, brother, sister, or parents?
• What kind of financial support will your family need in the future?
• What costs will need to be covered such as household bills, living expenses, mortgage payments, education costs, loans, debts and funeral costs?
• Whether you can afford to pay regular premiums or a lump sum?
• Whether you will need to include critical illness cover because of your family medical history?
• What kind of financial support does your family have now?
