Abstract:
Financial products, such as a mortgage, homeowner's insurance, and various forms of life insurance, can be packaged together and marketed around a move event. A customer can apply for a mortgage on a web site. As part of the application process, certain data is collected from the customer, and other data may be retrieved from one or more databases. This information can be used to offer and price homeowner's insurance and life insurance, and to suggest an amount of insurance. The web site may offer the customer the chance to buy a mortgage and insurance as a package, after answering a small number of questions that are used to assess the insurance-related risk. The customer may also be offered the chance to make a unified monthly payment for the package of both mortgage and insurance products.
