Mortgage Life Insurance In Alberta: What Is Used to Price Mortgage Insurance Premiums?
June 29th, 2009 | 
Author: You can count on three main factors determining the premium of your mortgage insurance. For any given policy with similar features, the premiums will be determined by the size of the loan, the age of the homeowner and whether or not he is a smoker.
Both mortgage life (to assure payment of the mortgage at the death of the insured) and disability (to provide income for paying the mortgage in case of the disability of the insured) use the same criteria to price the premiums.
As in most insurance policies, the physical condition and age of the insured have the most impact since it determines the possible chance the policy will have to be paid. Many mortgage life and disability policies do not need a physical, only a statement of health condition. It is very risky to claim good health without it, however, because the insurance company can deny any claim if it comes from a condition that they can prove to be known to you at the time the policy was written. Don’t think you can claim that you are a non smoker and then collect on the insurance because the insurance company didn’t know. But if the cause of death or disability can be connected to the hidden condition, the policy can be voided, and the insured would have paid premiums for nothing.

Prices here where only down 3% in comparison to other parts of the nation which saw 20% and 30% drop in prices.
