Protection Assesment

A mortgage is likely to be the greatest financial commitment most people make. Your home (or buy-to-let investment) is still reliant on income being generated to support payment of the loan. The first aim of protection is to help you keep your home (or property). The second aim is to maintain you and your family’s standard of living should one of the events below happen.

We want to help you get the right quality of cover for your needs within your budget. After we have assessed your needs, we will advise and make recommendations for any of the listed events.

  • Short-term illness

  • An accident

  • A serious illness – such as cancer, stroke or heart attack

  • Death

  • Any of the above happening to your tenant in your buy-to-let

Asset Protection Considerations

How long will your current provisions last?

Our first step is to reassure you about this, recommending how to make the most use your current provisions. Should we discover the need to research some other solutions; we will do so while being ever mindful of your objectives and budget. For example, once you are legally committed to purchase, it is important that you have the correct level of cover in place from that point onwards, rather than completion.

Think about your family

There are events we can all face that have the potential to wreck lives and families. It’s a difficult issue to think about, but imagine the impact on you and your family should the main earner in your household die or become seriously ill. It may not happen to you – we hope it doesn’t – but it might.

You will most probably be familiar with how you protect your property, using buildings and home contents insurance. Are you as familiar with protecting your greatest asset – YOU?

Providers pay out!

“Figures from the Association of British Insurers (ABI) and Group Risk Development (GRiD) reveal that group and individual protection policies have paid out a combined record of £7.34 billion in claims to support people experiencing bereavement, illness and injury in 2023. That’s roughly £20.1 million paid out per day.””
