Mortgage Protection Insurance For Over 65
Mortgage protection insurance is no different for people over 65 than people younger, it’s just not offered by as many companies.
In fact, most mortgage protection insurance companies stop offering this protection around 50-60.
But there are others that offer coverage to people all the way up to age 80!
So who are these companies?

Term Lengths For Mortgage Protection Over 65
The two biggest differences for people over 65 in regards to mortgage protection insurance are the term lengths available and the price.
For anyone 65+ you can only get 10, 15, and 20-year terms. And the older you get the fewer options you have.
| Age | Term Length |
|---|---|
| 65 | 10, 15, 20 Year Term |
| 70 | 10, 15 Year Term |
| 75 | 10 Year Term |
| 80 | 10 Year Term |
For mortgage protection insurance policies, the monthly premiums will remain level for the term length.
Once the term ends, you can renew coverage with most carriers up to age 95, but the monthly premiums will start to increase.
It is generally recommended to get the term length for however long you need it for as if you start to renew the policy after the term ends the monthly premiums start to go up very quickly.
