We are writing a piece to help advise US residents on the best
ways to purchase Canadian property, in this post-pandemic world.

In particular, we are interested in: 1) Best ways to find/view
a property (given travel restrictions). 2) How to finance the
purchase with a Canadian mortgage (is it possible? How much down
payment do you require? Where can you find a Canadian mortgage
as a US resident?) 3) Alternatives to Canadian mortgage: What
are your options? (Please be precise: If it's a US mortgage, how
will this work? If it's a HELOC, how does this work)? 4) Tax
considerations for each type of financing (ie: better for US
mortgage, because interest is a tax deduction?) 5) How should
the exchange rate impact this decision? 6) How does this
decision change if the buyer is retired (and has fixed income,
say, from a pension or from investments)? 7) How can whole life
insurance (of half a million) help with this sort of purchase?
Can it help?

As a US citizen buying Canadian property, are there other
considerations?

Requirements:

Anyone who specializes in mortgage, debt financing, use of life
insurance, or cross-border real estate acquisition.

Select and answer only the questions you feel qualified to
respond to (no need to give generic responses).

39) Summary: Need experts for story: What's the average cost of health insurance today?

Name: Erik Martin Insurance.com

Category: General

Email: query-b90v@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Insurance.com

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 11 September

Query:

Hello. My name is Erik Martin (more about me at
martinspiration.com), writer with Insurance.com. I'm looking to
interview health insurance industry professionals, Obamacare
experts, attorneys, personal-finance experts, and other
professionals for the following story:

What is the average cost of health insurance? This story will
explore the average costs by age for individual health care
plans and Affordable Care Act plans and how age affects health
insurance costs. Below is a list of questions I'm seeking
answers to. I can only conduct email interviews (please email me
back full-sentence written responses that I can use as quotes).
My deadline is noon central, Friday, September 11.

QUESTIONS: 1. In general, how does age affect health insurance
costs? Please explain how employer-based plans don't charge more
by age, yet individual plans and ACA plans can charge more based
on age. 2. What other factors can determine the average rate you
pay for: (a) an individual plan; and (B) an ACA plan? 3. Can you
please break down what each age group (e.g., 35 to 40, 40 to 45,
etc., or each yearly age) can expect to pay out-of-pocket
nowadays, on average, for: (a) an individual plan; (B) an ACA
plan; and (C) an employer-provided plan? (Please cite the
sources of your data with links if possible) 4. Please explain
how states can affect average health insurance costs as well.
Can you name a few states with stricter regulations that go
beyond the ACA? 5. Please explain the different healthcare plan
tiers (e.g., Platinum versus Gold versus Silver versus Bronze),
and what you can expect to pay out-of-pocket, in general, and on
average, for each tier if you choose a: (a) individual plan; (B)
ACA plan; (C) employer-provided plan. 6. In general, who
typically pays the least and the most on average for healthcare
insurance plans and why (e.g., a young employee whose employer
provides a plan versus a pre-retiree who works for himself)? 7.
To what extent can consumers expect healthcare insurance costs
to rise from year-to-year - especially from 2022 2021, for
example? 8. Any other thoughts, tips, or suggestions on this
topic? 9. What is your full name, title, company, city/state
location, and email address?
