14231 POINTSview profileTom SheehanAgency Owner, The Thomas G Sheehan Agency, 27 Glen Road Sandy Hook, CT 06482A Term Life Insurance policy is, simply stated, one that provides life insurance protection, usually for a certain period of time, without any "bells and whistles" like cash accumulation benefits that are found in Permanent Life Insurance products. In short, it is low cost pure protection for you and your family.Answered on December 12, 2013flag this answer.JPG)

Term life insurance usually stays the same price for a set number of years, then it ends, or else it goes way up in price. Because of that price increase, most people buy a new term policy when the term is up, if their health allows. Some term policies allow you to convert them to permanent insurance before the term ends.Answered on December 12, 2013flag this answer
21750 POINTSview profileJim WinklerCEO/Owner, Winkler Financial Group, Houston, TexasGreat question! A term policy is a low cost, policy that covers a defined period of time - your insurance at work is a one year term policy, for example, which is why you have to enroll each fall. The terms are typically 5,10,15,20,or 30 years, and usually the price is steady throughout the term period. Once your term ends, so does your coverage. This is the opposite of a "whole life" policy, which will last as long as you do. If you would like more information, please contact me, I'd be happy to help. Thanks for asking!Answered on April 16, 2014flag this answer

Once the policy is in force the rate is guaranteed level, can't go up for the number of years agreed to by the life insurance company. You on the other hand may drop coverage at anytime. There are many types of term life policies from 1 year annual renewable to 5-10-15-20-25-30-35 years, the rate is guaranteed level regardless of change in health, residence or occupation. The longer the term the more expensive the premium.Answered on May 9, 2016flag this answer
