Home Insurance — Not Compulsory, But...
You have no legal obligation to insure
your residence. However, if your residence is financed by Industrial
Alliance’s Mortgage Loans Department or by another financial institution, the institution will
require that you insure it to protect the financed property. Even a property
that is mortgage-free should be insured. After all, it costs only a few
hundred dollars a year to protect your most precious asset—which
often has cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Your home represents an important investment
for you. Whether you are an owner or a co-owner, you should take the measures
required to properly protect this investment.
