In Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, which includes Milwaukee and several of its closest suburbs, many older adults are surprised to learn that term life insurance for seniors is still widely offered, though available term lengths and prices change with age. Some term policies allow conversion to permanent coverage before a set age, which can be valuable if your health changes later. If you are still paying a mortgage in your 50s or 60s, a senior term policy with a length matched to the remaining balance is one of the most common ways to protect the house. Term coverage does not build cash value, which is why it usually costs less than whole life or guaranteed universal life for the same death benefit. Adults in their 50s and 60s in Milwaukee County who still have years left on a mortgage often match a 10 or 15-year term to the remaining balance.
