Many retirees consider ‘Downsizing’ their home at some point. This is often for financial reasons (as the current home may now be too big) or to move into a new house better equipped to accommodate them. Over the last few years, Endura Private Wealth has specialised in providing guidance on ‘Downsizing’ for residents from Malvern to Prahran and Caulfield to Glen Iris.

Also known as ‘salary continuance insurance’ or ‘disability income insurance’, income protection provides a portion of your income, for example 75% of your annual salary, if you are unable to work due to injury or sickness for a certain period of time. You need to advise your annual salary when you take out the cover.

Income protection policies always have a waiting period and a payment period. The waiting period is the time you must wait from when you make a valid claim, to the time you become eligible to start receiving payments. The payment period is the period you can be paid so long as you remain unable to work. Other terms and conditions apply depending on the policy. All of these factors affect the level of premiums you pay.
