Who this is for

You'll recognize yourself in at least one of these.

01

You have a 30-year mortgage and two young kids

A 30-year term matched to your mortgage and your kids' independence protects the two most expensive obligations you'll ever have.

02

You want the maximum coverage for the lowest premium

Term life gives you the highest death benefit per dollar of premium. If pure protection is the goal, term is almost always the answer.

03

You want convertible coverage in case your needs change

A term policy with a strong conversion privilege lets you switch to permanent coverage later — no new medical exam required.

04

You need coverage that doesn't require a medical exam

Many carriers now offer accelerated underwriting for term policies up to $1M+ — application, decision, and active coverage within days.

In plain English

How term life gives you the most protection per dollar.

Term life is a straightforward contract: you pay a level premium for a defined period (the "term"), and if you die during that period, the insurance company pays your beneficiaries a fixed death benefit. That's it.

Why it's cheap

Most people outlive their term. Insurance companies price accordingly, which is why term is far less expensive than permanent insurance for the same death benefit — often 5–10x cheaper.

Term lengths

10, 15, 20, and 30-year terms are the most common. Match the term to the obligation: 30-year for a new mortgage and young kids, 20-year if you have a decade less runway, 10-year if you just need to bridge a gap.

Convertibility matters

A quality term policy includes a conversion privilege — the right to convert to permanent insurance at defined intervals without new medical underwriting. If your health changes during the term, this feature can be worth many times the premium.

Rooted locally

Built for New Braunfels and the Texas Hill Country.

Term life is the workhorse of family financial planning across New Braunfels and the Texas Hill Country. Young families in Gruene, Canyon Lake, Seguin, San Marcos, and Bulverde routinely use 20 or 30-year term to protect mortgages, education savings, and stay-at-home spouses.

I compare rates across the major term carriers and match you to the one whose underwriting best fits your specific health profile. Small differences matter — the same "preferred plus" rating can price out very differently between carriers.

Frequently asked

Answers before you ask

01What is term life insurance?

Term life covers you for a specific period — typically 10, 15, 20, or 30 years — with a level premium. If you pass during the term, your beneficiaries receive the death benefit. If you outlive the term, coverage ends unless you renew or convert.

02How much term life do I need?

A common starting point is 10–12 times your annual income, adjusted for mortgage balance, kids' education, and existing savings. In New Braunfels, I walk through your specific situation — no cookie-cutter math.

03How much does term life cost?

Term life is the most affordable form of life insurance. A healthy 40-year-old in TX can often get $500,000 in 20-year term for under $30/month. Rates increase with age and health status.

04Do I need a medical exam?

It depends on the carrier and coverage amount. Many carriers offer accelerated underwriting with no exam for qualifying applicants — decisions in days, not weeks. Larger face amounts may still require a paramedical exam.

05Can I convert my term policy to permanent later?

Most quality term policies include a conversion privilege that lets you switch to permanent (whole or universal) life without new medical underwriting. This is a valuable feature we look for.

06What happens when my term ends?

Coverage stops. Some policies allow annual renewal at much higher rates. If you still need coverage, converting to permanent before the term ends is usually the better path.

07Is term life good for mortgage protection?

Yes — often better than a mortgage-specific policy. A 30-year term for the full mortgage amount usually costs less and gives your family flexibility in how they use the death benefit. See our `mortgage protection` page for detailed comparison.

08Can I have multiple term policies?

Yes. "Laddering" term policies — a $500k 30-year and a $250k 15-year, for example — can match declining coverage needs and lower total premium. It's a smart move for many young families.
