Life Insurance · Virginia & North Carolina

Life insurance sized to the people who depend on you.

Term or permanent, a little or a lot. Blue Ridge Insurance compares life insurance from several carriers and helps you choose an amount based on your mortgage, income and family, not a round number.

The Basics

Most families have less coverage than they think.

Group life through work is a good start, but it’s often one or two times salary and usually ends when the job does. An individual policy stays with you regardless of where you work and can be sized to replace income, pay off a mortgage and fund your children’s education.

Term life covers a set period, such as 20 or 30 years, and is usually the most affordable way to buy a large benefit. Permanent life lasts your lifetime and can build cash value, at a higher cost. Many people use a combination.

How we size coverage

  • Years of income to replace
  • Mortgage and other debts
  • Children’s education goals
  • Final expenses
  • Coverage you already have at work

Common Questions

Life insurance questions

How much life insurance do I need?
It depends on your income, debts and the people who rely on you. We’ll walk through the numbers with you rather than using a rule of thumb.
Is the life insurance through my job enough?
Often not. Employer coverage is usually limited and may end if you change jobs. An individual policy fills the gap and goes with you.
Do I need a medical exam?
Not always. Some carriers offer coverage without an exam depending on your age, health and the amount you apply for.
