Your lender offered you insurance with your mortgage in Saguenay, or you are about to get one. Before you sign, a life and health insurance representative registered with the AMF compares that offer with an individual life insurance policy. The form asks no medical questions.
The housing stock in Saguenay
Saguenay brings together three former cities, Chicoutimi, Jonquière, and La Baie, and the market varies from one borough to the next.
Sectors: Chicoutimi · Jonquière · La Baie
Transfer duties in Saguenay
The City of Saguenay adds two brackets above $500,000 to the provincial ones, by bylaw.
Transfer duties are paid in cash after signing with the notary; they are not included in the mortgage loan.
What is specific to Saguenay
Saguenay has three boroughs: Chicoutimi, Jonquière and La Baie. The type of property and the borough are part of the conversation with the broker.
Who gets the money
With the lender’s insurance, the lender is generally the beneficiary, and the amount shrinks with the loan balance. With an individual policy, you choose the beneficiary. Your spouse then receives a sum to use as they see fit, including to pay off the house.
At renewal
If you change lenders, insurance tied to the loan may not follow you. An individual policy stays in force. Read that clause before you sign, not when you renew.
Why there is no price here
The price depends on your age, your health, whether you smoke, and the amount insured. Without those, a figure would mean nothing.
