Your home is probably the most important thing you own so it makes sense that you want to protect it. But what would happen if illness, injury or death meant that you couldn’t make your mortgage payments any more?
Mortgage protection cover from Aviva will pay off your mortgage if you can’t keep up with your payments. So you know that no matter what happens, your family can keep the home they love.

Affordable cover for extra security
When you’re taking out your mortgage, your lender will usually request that you also take out a mortgage protection policy. This is a cheaper form of life cover where the benefit reduces each month in line with the value of your outstanding mortgage.
At Aviva, we offer mortgage protection that’s easy on your pocket and that gives you peace of mind, no matter what the future holds.
