Protection against a specific loss over a period of time that is secured by the payment of a regularly scheduled premium.Two other forms of insurance that lenders require are title insurance, and mortgage insurance (if the loan is greater than 80% of the value of your home).
Insurance is not an option when buying a home. Lenders require that you carry enough insurance to cover the value of the home incase anything should happen.
Often times your mortgage broker can give you a referral to a trusted insurance professional that can work with you during the home loan process.
All buyers are required to carry the necessary insurance required by the lender.
Homeowners insurance also referred to as hazard insurance will always be a required insurance for homeowners to carry when obtaining a mortgage.
