DARIEN, Illinois (September 1, 2021) – LifeQuotes.com, the online insurance broker that offers instant, comparative quotes from 40 leading life insurers and allows customers to purchase from the company of their choice, today reminds consumers that September is Life Insurance Awareness Month and that life insurance prices are now at all-time lows.
Michelle Zieba, vice president, said, “Parents without life insurance need to step up. Personal life insurance ownership among American households fell to 52% last year. And 42% of people believe they would struggle to pay living expenses within six months if a primary wage earner died. The good news is, getting fresh quotes takes only seconds at www.lifequotes.com.”
The LifeQuotes proprietary technology enables instant quotes from up to 40 insurers, underwriting guidelines disclosed, instant-decision underwriting and online buying capability all backed by caring, salaried telephone specialists who are trained to assist and inform without any sales pressure.
Other customer-pleasing features of the LifeQuotes.com platform include automatic quoting of Final Expense, Term Life, Whole Life and Universal Life, no-exam underwriting, and the disclosure of actual underwriting guidelines so that people with health histories can better understand, up front, the expected final price.
Zieba continued, “No parent should rely solely upon life insurance from their workplace because that coverage is typically capped at two times annual earnings and the coverage might not be portable should you change employers. Having an adequate amount of life insurance in place is important and everybody’s situation is unique. Here are some LifeQuotes.com guidelines.”
For people who work and have dependents, children or a mortgage: 10-15 times annual income
For home caregivers: $300,000 minimum
For burial-only coverage: $10,000-$25,000
Owners of term life insurance policies are reminded that their policies might contain the right to convert all or part of their term life policy to a permanent policy with no health questions or medical exam.
Instant decision term life plans rise in popularity
The chart of sample monthly premiums below reveals the best possible monthly prices for a 10-year, instant decision level term life policy. Most 10-year term life policies are renewable, without evidence of insurability, to age 90+ and may be convertible to permanent insurance without having to undergo further underwriting. Other initial rate guarantee periods such as 15, 20, 25, 30 years and longer are also available as are Universal Life and Whole Life, both of which can provide a level death benefit and level premiums for life.
