Wondering why it’s important to insure your life while repaying a home loan? A housing loan is a life project. It lasts on average 15-20 years. In case of unforeseen life circumstances, it may happen that the heirs cannot pay the installments on the loan for the mortgaged apartment. In order for the family to be secured, it is important that you insure yourself. The insurance company will repay the rest of the debt on the loan and the bank will delete the mortgage from the apartment. It’s all up to you.
