Haven Life Term Life Insurance
Haven Life Insurance only offers term life insurance, just like Primerica Life. When you buy term life insurance, you purchase the coverage for a certain number of years.
The premiums remain level until the coverage period expires and then your policy becomes annually renewable. This usually comes with a premium increase also.
With term life insurance most other companies give you the option to convert to a permanent policy during your coverage period, Haven Life does not.
Applicants up to age 60 and in good health are able to purchase up to $2 million of death protection without an exam. Ages 60-64 are eligible for up to 1 million in coverage.
But don’t be fooled, you must considered a qualified applicant (No health problems) to qualify for a no exam term life policy. Most consumers will still be required to take an exam and have up to 90 days to complete.
Also, Haven Life Insurance offers the accelerated benefit rider to there term life insurance at no extra cost. This rider allows you access a portion of your death benefit is you are diagnosed with a terminal illness to help cover medical bills or other expenses.

Our Thoughts
Haven Life Insurance is a great insurance company to work with. They have the backing of MassMutual which owns all the top ratings from the credit agencies. In other words they will pay the claim when the time comes.
The one downside in my opinion is not having an agent to assist you. Not having an agent could mean not having enough life insurance for your family, paying to much for your policy, and not having someone to call when you have a question about your policy.
And you can still do this without ever seeing an agent, just speaking to one over the phone, like us. If you have any questions or would like a quote please don’t hesitate to give us a call or comment below.
