My husband and I are looking for a place to buy. We both have good jobs, but we want to buy something that we can afford together. If something were to happen to either one of us, I would want our home investment to be protected. We both have life insurance policies, but aren't sure if that is enough. Any thoughts on this?

You should review this with your financial planner. If you don't have one, have a family member, friend, or co-worker refer you to one. An advisor will review your overall financial situation and advise you on how much insurance you should carry. In the end, you should take out a regular life insurance policy where your spouse is the beneficiary, not your mortgage lender thru "mortgage insuranace".
