Upon the purchase of a financed property,financial institutions should mandatorily require that the taker of real estate financing (borrower) take out insurance with coverage for taker’s death and permanent disability (MIP) and physical damage to the property (DFI), as this insurance policy is mandatory for all property financed by the Housing Financing System (Sistema Financeiro da Habitação).
The entity financing real property purchase , qualifies, from its roster, at least two among the various insurers authorized to operate in this branch , and places these for borrowers’ choice. Each insurer manages its housing insurance portfolio, whose operating conditions follow the rules defined by Susep (Private Insurance Superintendency, the authority subordinated to the Ministry of Finance, in charge of regulating and inspecting the insurance sector).
Housing insurance comprises a basic guarantee to real estate credit, with benefiits to all parties involved.
The DFI coverage comprises risks of fire, lighning strike, explosion, flooding , roof loss, full or partial building collapse, in addition to building collapse threat. Indemnification is equal to the amount needed to compensate for the losses, with property rehabbing to conditions identical to those the building presented prior to the damage (materializing of one of the risks envisaged in the policy.
The MIP coverage, in turn, protects the borrower and family in case of his or her death or permanent disability or of one of the members comprising family income, when property financing was granted entailing this situation, that is, more than one person. In this case, indemnification will correspond to the settlement of the outstanding debt, commensurate with the share, in the financing contract, of the deceased or disabled party.
