This product is a dinosaur.
Used to be used for mortgages, but since term insurance has become so cheap, there's no need for it anymore....

There's a decent chance that a level 20-year term will be less expensive than a mortgage term from one of those "rinky dink" companies.

My point exactly Ed. Who offers it?

Good question. I have seen them as riders on permanent policies, but not stand alone policies.

To answer your question, Old Mutual/Fidelity and Guaranty offers it. I certainly doubt that there is anyone who offers an underwritten decreasing term product. So you are going to have to compare decreasing non-med term to basic non-med term.

A few years ago a company called Family Life offered it. I don't know if that still holds true, but it may be worthwhile to check it out ("google").

VBA offers one also. But like everyone said. It is junk and will not save your client any money.
American Income Life ( a Torchmark Company) offers this and the most expensive 10-year term on planet earth. Since the level term is so expensive, there are agents who suggest this product (because of the way it amortizes) as a form of income protection as well.
