CONT

Mortgage loan insurance was developed to address the problem home buyers have with saving enough for a down payment while addressing the concerns Canadian mortgage lenders expressed with the increased potential of payment default. By developing mortgage loan insurance, home buyers and mortgage lenders now have an alternative. Using approved Canadian lenders, mortgage loan insurance now affords home buyers the ability to purchase a home with as little as 5% down while protecting mortgage lenders against payment default.

OBS

Mortgage insurance ... Do not confuse this form of insurance with the life insurance offered by many lenders that repays the loan in the event that the borrower dies.
