How to get it and what you can expect

  • Why do you need an Absa Home Loan Protector?

    For most of us, keeping a roof over our heads requires some financial assistance in the form of a home loan. While this may be a blessing to some, it can turn into a heavy burden if something happens to the one responsible for paying it off.

    If your hard-earned cash is contributing towards a home loan, you may require a Home Loan Protector from Absa. We can protect you if:

    • You have an Absa Home Loan
    • Your home loan is less than R1 million
    • You want to protect your family financially by covering any outstanding debt on your property should anything happen to you
    • You want to provide financial security for your family
  • What you get with Home Loan Protector?

    Losing a loved one, or seeing them disabled is traumatic enough without having to worry about everyday consequences like what might happen to the roof over your head. The Absa Home Loan Protector is for you if:

    • You work hard on maintaining your lovely home and your family deserves to continue enjoying these benefits if you’re gone
    • You want complete peace of mind that your repayments will be taken care of and that nobody will come between your family and their home
    • You are worried that you may not be able to carry on with your repayments after being badly injured or disabled
    • You want some flexibility to change the amount that you are insured for
    • You want as little as possible to bother you in the event that you are diagnosed with a terminal illness
  • What does this cover?
