Life Insurance FAQs

How much life insurance do I need?

A common guideline is 10-15 times your annual income, adjusted for debts, mortgage, and your family's needs. We will help you calculate a number that actually fits your situation.

What's the difference between term and whole life?

Term covers you for a set period at a lower cost. Whole life is permanent and builds cash value. The right choice depends on your goals – we explain both plainly.

Do I need a medical exam?

Some policies require one; many now offer no-exam options. We match you to carriers that fit your health profile and timeline.

How much does life insurance cost?

Cost depends on your age, health, coverage amount, and policy type. Term life is often more affordable than people expect – we compare carriers to find your best rate.

Can life insurance be used for business planning?

Yes – key-person and buy-sell coverage protect a business and its owners. We work with many local business owners on exactly this.
