Is there a clause in a life insurance policy that pays for a home if the owner dies?

It would be possible to write an insurance policy that way if you wanted to, however, normally a life insurance policy pays a fixed amount of money (known as the death benefit) to a chosen beneficiary. If the beneficiary then wished to use that money to pay for a home, that could be done.

Who takes over a life insurance policy when the policy holder dies?
If the policyholder (policy owner) is also the insured, then no one does. The policy proceeds (assuming the policy is in force at the time of death) are paid according to the designated beneficiary(ies), and the contract ceases to exist. If the policyholder (owner) is not the insured, then the policy ownership would flow according to the owner's will.

You do not need a health examination to obtain home owner insurance. Your health is not an issue.

What happens when a home owner dies is that someone else inherits the house. The new owner will have the option of continuing the existing home owner insurance policy.
I took out life insurance on my husband in 1988 we divorced 10 years later. I have been paying it ever since. He has married again. If he dies who will be able to claim on the policy.?
Are you the owner of the policy? If so, you are the only person authorized to change the beneficiary on the policy. If you are not the owner of the policy, your ex-husband can change the life insurance beneficiary regardless of the fact that you have paid the premiums.
