The people you love shouldn't inherit the payment.

In South Carolina, the typical home is worth $236,700, and a mortgage runs about $1,475 a month — roughly $17,700 a year. If something happened to you tomorrow, that bill wouldn't pause for grief. Mortgage protection is coverage that clears the balance, so the people you love keep the home instead of the payment. South Carolina homes are more affordable than in 35 states, but a paid-off balance still matters to the family left with it.

• Pays the remaining mortgage so your family isn't forced to sell in the hardest season of their lives
• Built around your loan and your budget — you choose how much protection feels right
• It protects your family, not the bank — nothing like PMI

Grief is enough. The mortgage shouldn't be too.

Losing a parent or a partner is the hardest thing a family goes through. Adding a $1,475 mortgage payment on top of it — every month, whether or not the income is still there — is a cruelty no one plans for. A mortgage protection policy in South Carolina takes that specific fear off the table.
