Family income benefit is designed to provide your loved ones with a regular income if you were to die during the policy term, helping them maintain financial stability when it’s needed most.
At Holbrook Property Finance, we offer clear, whole-of-market advice to help you arrange family income benefit cover that supports your family’s everyday living costs and long-term security.






Family income benefit is a type of life insurance that pays out a regular monthly or annual income to your chosen beneficiaries if you pass away during the policy term (subject to policy terms and conditions). Rather than paying a single lump sum, the policy provides ongoing payments for the remainder of the term.
This type of cover is often chosen by families who want to ensure essential household expenses — such as bills, childcare and general living costs — can continue to be met over time. The income is designed to help maintain a familiar lifestyle and reduce financial disruption.
Because the benefit is paid over a set period, family income benefit can be a cost-effective way to provide meaningful protection, particularly for families with young children or long-term financial commitments.
Family income benefit policies can vary between insurers in terms of payment structure, policy length and definitions. Choosing the right policy involves more than selecting a payment amount — it requires careful planning around your family’s needs and future responsibilities.
At Holbrook Property Finance, we take time to understand your household finances, including income, outgoings, dependants and existing protection. With access to the whole of the market, we compare policies from a wide range of insurers and explain the differences clearly.
Using a broker also helps ensure the policy term and income amount are set appropriately, so your family receives support for the period they need it most — without unnecessary cost or gaps in cover.
Family income benefit can be tailored in several ways depending on your circumstances and priorities.
Policies can be arranged to pay a fixed level of income or an increasing income to help keep pace with rising living costs. The length of the policy term is usually aligned with key milestones, such as when children are expected to become financially independent.
Whether you’re starting a family, reviewing existing protection or looking for a more cost-effective alternative to lump-sum life insurance, we’ll help you explore family income benefit options that balance affordability, flexibility and meaningful support.
At Holbrook Property Finance, we believe protection advice should be clear, personal and focused on real-life outcomes. We take a relationship-led approach, ensuring recommendations are aligned with your family’s needs and future plans.
You’ll benefit from whole-of-market access to trusted insurers, straightforward explanations in plain English, and ongoing support as your circumstances change. Our 5 star Google Reviews reflect our commitment to professionalism, integrity and consistently strong client outcomes.

Excellent experience working with Mark & Clare at Holbrook property finance 👍Posted on Google Sofia PittmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I worked with Mark to purchase and mortgage my first apartment few years ago, he secured me a very competitive rate which reduced my monthly payments and the whole experience was professional and stress-free. When my current fixed term is ending, I have contacted Mark to assist with a remortgage. He is consistently helpful and knowledgable, explained all the available options clearly, and took the time to understand my mortgage request then advised a product that genuinely suited my circumstances. Communication was excellent and transparent throughout, with quick response to any questions. He secured me a current best rate and handled all the paper work efficiently. An outstanding and reliable broker who truly goes above and beyond. I would highly recommend Holbrook’s services and Mark to anyone looking to mortgage or remortgage.Posted on Google Robin MallinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
