Life and critical illness insurance provides financial protection for you and your loved ones if the unexpected happens, helping ease financial pressure at an already difficult time.
At Holbrook Property Finance, we offer clear, whole-of-market advice to help you arrange protection that’s tailored to your circumstances, responsibilities and future plans.






Life and critical illness insurance is designed to provide financial support if you die or are diagnosed with a specified serious illness during the policy term (subject to policy definitions and terms). Life insurance pays out a lump sum on death, while critical illness cover pays out if you’re diagnosed with one of the conditions listed in the policy.
These policies are often arranged together to provide broader protection, particularly for homeowners and families with financial commitments such as a mortgage, childcare costs or ongoing household expenses. Cover can be set up to provide a lump sum that helps reduce financial strain when it’s needed most.
Life and critical illness insurance policies can differ significantly between insurers, not just in price but in the scope of cover, condition definitions and claims approach. Comparing policies properly requires more than simply choosing the cheapest option.
At Holbrook Property Finance, we take time to understand your personal circumstances, including your mortgage, income, dependants and long-term goals. With access to the whole of the market, we can compare a wide range of insurers and explain the key differences clearly.
Using a broker also helps ensure your policy is set up correctly from the outset — including cover amounts, policy term and ownership — reducing the risk of gaps in protection or misunderstandings later on.
Life and critical illness insurance can be structured in a number of ways depending on your priorities and financial situation.
Some clients choose cover to protect a mortgage, while others want broader protection to support family living costs or future plans. Policies can be arranged on a level or decreasing basis, depending on whether the amount of cover needs to remain fixed or reduce over time.
Whether you’re buying your first home, moving house, starting a family or reviewing existing protection, we’ll help you explore life and critical illness insurance options that balance affordability, flexibility and meaningful cover.
At Holbrook Property Finance, we believe protection advice should be clear, personal and tailored — not rushed or generic. We take the time to explain your options in plain English and ensure recommendations are aligned with your wider financial plans.
