The Term Length refers to the length of time that a life insurance policy has a guaranteed in force price. Term Life Insurance, in comparison to Permanent Life Insurance, such as Whole life, has a given number of years for which the policy premium is guaranteed.
“Once that period or “term” is up, it is up to the policy owner to decide whether to renew or to let the coverage end.” According to Investopedia.
Those term length options: 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 are the most popular and constitute the build of term life purchases.
Decisions about the appropriate term length should be made in consideration of the desired amount of time for that life insurance to be in force. Although technically possible that a new life insurance policy or a continuation of the term policy is possible, it generally should not be planned on. In other words, consumers should choose the term length as if it is the last insurance policy they will buy.
