COVERAGE

Find the right type of coverage

Life insurance isn't one-size-fits-all. Here's how the three main types work — and who each one is right for.

6

Term Life Insurance

Simple · Affordable · Fixed term

Coverage for a set period — 10, 20, or 30 years. Pays a tax-free death benefit if you pass away during the term. The most straightforward and affordable way to get substantial coverage.

✓  Lowest monthly premiums of any life policy
Coverage from $100K to $2M+
✓ Lock in your rate for the full term
✓ Can often convert to permanent coverage later
✓ Tax-free payout to your beneficiaries

Best for: Young families, new homeowners, anyone who wants maximum coverage at minimum cost to stay protected.

7

Whole life insurance

Lifelong · Cash value · Predictable

Permanent coverage that never expires, with a guaranteed death benefit and a cash value component that grows over time. 

✓  Coverage lasts your entire lifetime
✓  Builds tax-deferred cash value over time
✓  Fixed premiums — never increase with age
✓  Borrow against cash value when needed
✓  Guaranteed death benefit for your family

Best for: Those who want lifelong coverage, an estate planning tool, or a policy that builds financial value.

8

Universal life insurance

Flexible · Adjustable · Long-term

A permanent policy with flexible premiums and adjustable death benefits. As your life changes, your coverage adapts with you. Also builds cash value tied to market interest rates.

✓  Adjust premiums and coverage as life changes
✓  Cash value grows based on current interest rates
✓  Permanent protection with built-in flexibility
✓  Potential for higher cash value growth
✓  Ideal for evolving financial situations

 

Best for: Young families, new homeowners, anyone who wants maximum coverage at minimum cost.

Not sure which type is right for you?

Most families start with a term policy — it's affordable, simple, and provides the most coverage per dollar. The right answer depends on your age, income, dependents, and long-term goals. Talk to Reid and we'll figure it out together →

Frequently Asked Questions

How much life insurance do I actually need?
A common starting point is 10–12 times your annual income, but the right number depends on your debts, dependents, income replacement needs, and long-term goals like college funding. We'll walk you through a quick needs analysis to find the right number for your family — no guesswork.
What's the difference between term and whole life insurance?
Term life covers you for a specific period (10, 20, or 30 years) at a lower monthly cost — ideal for income replacement during your working years. Whole life is permanent coverage that also builds cash value over time. Most families start with term for the affordability, and we can help you decide if adding permanent coverage makes sense later.
Is life insurance expensive?
Much less than most people expect. A healthy 35-year-old can typically get a $500,000 term policy for around $20–$30 per month. The earlier you lock in your rate, the lower your premium — rates increase with age and health changes, so there's real value in not waiting.
Do I need a medical exam to get covered?
Not always. Many policies offer simplified or no-exam underwriting, especially for younger applicants or lower coverage amounts. For larger policies or certain health histories, a basic medical exam may be required — but the process is straightforward and usually completed at home or at a convenient location.
Can I bundle life insurance with my home or auto policy?
Yes — and it's one of the easiest ways to reduce your overall insurance costs. Bundling home, auto, and life policies together unlocks meaningful multi-policy discounts. You'll also manage everything through one agent, one account, and one renewal cycle.
What happens if I outlive my term policy?
If you outlive your term, the policy simply expires — which is actually the goal, since it means you and your family made it through the years you needed protection most. At that point, you can renew, convert to a permanent policy, or reassess whether you still need coverage based on your financial situation.
