Products: Life Insurance Planning: What is Term Insurance?
Term insurance provides protection for a specific period of time. It pays a benefit only if you die during the term. Some term insurance policies can be renewed when you reach the end of the term—which can be from one to 30 years. The premium rates increase at each renewal date. Many polices require that you present evidence of insurability at renewal to qualify for the lower rates.

The Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in housing because of:

- Religion
- Sex
- Familial status (including children under the age of 18 living with parents or legal custodians; pregnant women and people securing custody of children under 18)
