We had a great experience working with Tiernan from Low Quotes team as our mortgage broker while buying our home in Ireland. He made what can be a stressful process feel much easier and always kept things clear and straightforward.Tiernan handled everything with calm and professionalism, even when things got busy or pressured. He was always quick to respond, happy to answer any questions, and kept us updated every step of the way.We really appreciated how supportive and reliable he was throughout the whole journey. Thanks to his help, everything went smoothly and we’re now settled in our new home.I would highly recommend Low Quotes to anyone looking for a home mortgage and a mortgage broker.

Cormac Logue was fantastic at helping me obtain income protection. Despite the carrier seeking additional information and making it more complex, he cut through all the insurance jargon and found me a top-class policy without any of the stress. Sound as a pound and dead easy to deal with. Five stars all day long.

When it comes to insurance, we are always skeptical whether its a good deal or not. Also we feel if we could get a deal suited to our custom requirements and not a generic one. I would like to give a shoutout to Low Quote for being direct and patient with me when i explained my situation. They are great and recommended if you wanna get an honest quote. Massive thanks to Shawn (or Shaun) Young in Health insurance department being the life saver (pun intended).

​As a first-time buyer, buying as a single applicant, I had a million questions, and Niamh McCaul answered every single one with patience and expertise.She went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and confident with my decisions. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated to her client's success.​I cannot recommend Niamh highly enough! From our very first phone call, she made the entire mortgage process feel seamless and stress-free. As someone who was quite overwhelmed by the paperwork, Niamh’s ability to explain everything in plain English was a lifesaver.She was always one step ahead, keeping me updated at every turn and securing a fantastic rate. If you want a mortgage advisor who is professional, proactive, and genuinely cares about her clients, look no further.Thank you, Niamh, for making my dream home a reality!Shane.

I had a great experience arranging my mortgage protection through this broker, especially with Cormac helping me along the way. He was very proactive and followed up multiple times while I was sorting things out with the developer, which really helped keep everything moving.Cormac Logue was always keen to help and very flexible in arranging calls at times that suited me, making the whole process much easier. He also managed to get the policy arranged very quickly once everything was in place.Overall, a very smooth and professional experience.

Why Choose Over 50s Life Insurance?

Over 50s life insurance is ideal for those who may not have had the opportunity to secure life insurance earlier in life or those looking to enhance their current coverage. This policy is particularly beneficial for individuals seeking to cover end-of-life expenses, such as funeral costs, outstanding debts, or to leave a financial gift for their family.

Key Differences of Over 50s Life Insurance

  • Guaranteed Acceptance: One of the standout features of over 50s life insurance is guaranteed acceptance. There are no medical exams or health questions required, making it accessible to all applicants regardless of their health status.
  • Fixed Premiums: Premiums are typically fixed, meaning they won’t increase as you age. This provides financial predictability and ensures that the cost of your insurance remains manageable.
  • Lifetime Cover: Unlike term life insurance policies that only cover you for a specific period, over 50s life insurance provides coverage for the remainder of your life, ensuring that a payout is guaranteed.
  • High Age Limits: You can obtain coverage as late as the age of 91, providing a valuable option for older individuals seeking financial security.

Your Questions Answered

Single Cover –
Only one person is covered under the policy. If this person dies within the term of the policy – The cover amount will be paid to the policy holders estate.

Dual Cover –
Only one person is covered under the policy. If this person dies within the term of the policy – The cover amount will be paid to the policy holders estate.

Joint Cover –
Two people are covered under the one policy. But only pays out on one death. For example “Joint Life, First death” will pay out when the first person dies, and nothing when the second person dies. We advise against this type of cover, as Dual cover costs the same and pays out your cover amount twice rather than once, essentially doubling your cover free of charge. Call our advisors if you currently have a Joint cover policy in place and wish to replace it with a Dual cover policy.

Without the ‘Savings Option’ – Your policy is designed to pay out when you die. But if you stop paying your monthly premiums, your policy will end and you get no pay-out.

Our ‘Savings’ option costs an additional 10% on your policy. If you stop paying premiums, because you can’t keep up with the monthly payments; Once you have paid consistently for 15 years – Once your policy ends, You can either choose to receive an agreed lump sum payment immediately, or a reduced amount in the event of your death. It will be required to speak to one of our Financial Advisors to add this on your policy.

Selecting indexation on your policy will help to protect your cover against inflation.

Inflation can negatively effect the buying power of the amount you have paid in over a long period of time. Meaning, the amount of cover that was suitable when you took out the policy, may in the future not meet your family’s needs upon the event of your death.

For example – With only a 3% inflation rate – €500,000 after only 10 years is worth just €372,000. Remember, the money paid out would still be €500,000 – only worth less.

Absolutely. Terminal Illness Cover on your policy means that if during the lifetime of your policy you’re diagnosed with a terminal illness, the full amount of cover taken out will be payable immediately. To qualify for immediate payment, the illness either has to have no cure or has progressed to the point of being un-cureable and will lead to death within 12 months.

The factors that will determine how much cover you can afford to take out are: Your age, If you smoke or use nicotine replacement products, and how much you want to pay-in to your policy monthly.

Your general health, height/weight, if you’ve smoked within the last 12 months and the result of your health application will affect the final cost of your policy. We will give you a general quote first to give you an idea of the cost. Quotes provided online are for applicants in perfect health.
