Which life insurance fits Sunrise households
Term life insurance
If your job in Sunrise offers little or no life insurance, term life insurance fills that gap at a low monthly cost and stays with you if you change employers.
Whole life insurance
Homeowners who want a guaranteed benefit for their children or to cover final costs often add whole life insurance.
Indexed universal life (IUL)
Indexed universal life fits clients with stable income who want permanent coverage and flexible premiums, and who understand its caps and charges.
Final expense insurance
Final expense insurance is popular with Sunrise retirees and with adult children buying coverage for a parent.
