How much term life insurance do I need?

The amount of coverage you need depends on your financial obligations and goals. A common rule of thumb is 10-15 times your annual income, plus any outstanding debts and future expenses like children's education. Our calculator can help you determine a more precise amount based on your specific situation.

What term length should I choose?

The term length should cover your longest financial obligation. For example, if you have young children, a 20 or 30-year term might be appropriate to cover them through college. If you're mainly concerned about covering a mortgage, choose a term that matches your mortgage length.

How does my health affect my term life insurance rates?

Your health is a significant factor in determining your rates. Insurers typically offer better rates to healthier individuals who are less likely to pass away during the policy term. Some health conditions, smoking, or a family history of certain diseases can increase your premiums.

Can I change my coverage amount or term length after purchasing a policy?

Many term life policies offer the option to increase or decrease coverage, or to convert to a permanent policy. However, increasing coverage often requires additional underwriting. It's best to choose the right coverage from the start, as rates are based on your age and health at the time of purchase.

Is term life insurance or whole life insurance better?

The choice between term and whole life depends on your needs and financial situation. Term life is generally more affordable and provides coverage for a specific period. Whole life offers lifelong coverage and includes a cash value component but is more expensive. For many people, term life is sufficient to cover their needs during their working years.

How can I get the best rates on term life insurance?

To get the best rates:

Maintain good health
Apply when you're younger
Choose the right coverage amount and term length for your needs
Compare quotes from multiple insurers
Maintain a healthy lifestyle (non-smoker, regular exercise)

Working with an independent agent can help you find the most competitive options.
