The Different Types of Boston Life Insurance

There are a few different types of insurance policies on the market. The policy that is best for you will fit your life situation, budget, and personal preferences.  Here are some of the main types of Boston life insurance:

  • Term life insurance is the least expensive type of life insurance policy you can buy. It is purchased for a certain term, usually 10 to 30 years, and it provides death benefits to your beneficiaries if you pass away while the policy is in effect. This type of policy has no cash value and once it expires, it cannot be renewed at the same rates.
  • Whole life insurance is a type of permanent life insurance. Your premium payments are invested and build up a cash value. You may cash this policy in at any time, or you can allow it to build up to serve as a payment to your beneficiaries upon your death. These policies are significantly more expensive than term life insurance policies.
  • Universal life insurance is a flexible policy that combines the benefits of term and whole life insurance. These policies accrue cash value and you can take loans out against your built-up capital. You have the option to pay more than your scheduled premiums if you wish, and you can use your accumulated earnings to cover your premium payments when necessary.
