"I kept putting off life insurance for years. Took 8 minutes to get a quote, got approved the next morning. $750,000 in coverage for $41/month. My wife cried. Worth every second."

"I'm a type 2 diabetic and assumed no one would insure me at a decent rate. The broker found me a policy at standard rates — $38/month for $250K. I couldn't believe it."

Denise R.

"Single mom of two. Every broker I called tried to sell me whole life at $400/month. TrustedQuotes showed me term life — $1M for $52/month. That extra $350/month changed my budget completely."

Answers to What You're Wondering

"I'm healthy — do I really need it?"
Healthy is exactly when you buy it. Your health determines your rate — a healthy 35-year-old gets the lowest possible premium. Once you develop a condition, rates jump. Lock in now.
"I have life insurance through work"
Group coverage (usually 1–2× salary) disappears when you leave your job. You can't take it with you, and re-applying later at older age costs significantly more. Own your policy.
"It's too expensive"
$500,000 in coverage costs $31/month at age 35 — less than most streaming subscriptions combined. Most families overestimate the cost of life insurance by 3–5x before getting an actual quote.
"I have health issues"
Different carriers have vastly different underwriting standards. Diabetes, high blood pressure, and past cancer are insurable at the right carrier. An independent broker knows who to apply to.
"I don't want a medical exam"
Most of our clients don't take one. Accelerated underwriting covers up to $3M for qualified applicants with no physical exam — approval in as little as 24 hours.
"I don't know how much I need"
Use our coverage calculator to get a personalized number in 60 seconds, or let a broker walk you through it when you request a quote.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a $500,000 life insurance policy cost?
A $500,000 20-year term policy costs approximately $21–31/month for a healthy 35-year-old (female/male). At age 30, rates are $21–25/month. At 40, $37–44/month. Exact rates depend on health class, state, and the carrier we match you with.
How quickly can I get covered?
Many applicants using no-exam accelerated underwriting are approved in 24–48 hours. Traditional fully-underwritten policies with a medical exam take 3–6 weeks. We start with no-exam to see if you qualify — if you do, you get fast coverage at competitive rates.
Is TrustedQuotes free?
Yes, completely free. We're compensated by the insurance carriers when you enroll — similar to how airline booking sites work. You pay the same premium whether you go directly to a carrier or through us, but we do all the comparison work for you.
What if I have health issues?
Most health conditions are insurable — at the right carrier. Different carriers have very different underwriting for diabetes, heart disease, past cancer, and other conditions. An independent broker's job is to know which carriers are most favorable for your specific situation. We've gotten approvals for applicants who were turned down elsewhere.
What's the difference between term and whole life?
Term life covers you for a set period (10–30 years) at a fixed monthly premium — affordable, straightforward, and perfect for most families. Whole life covers you permanently and builds cash value, but costs 5–10x more for the same death benefit. We recommend term life for most people and whole life for specific estate planning situations.
Will my rates change after I'm approved?
No. Term life insurance rates are locked at approval — they never increase for the life of your policy, regardless of your health changes. This is one of the major benefits of buying now rather than waiting.
