What We Focus On

Three ways life insurance can work for your family

Every recommendation starts with your goals, your budget, and the people who are counting on you.

Mortgage Protection

If something happens to you, the mortgage is paid and your family keeps the house. Coverage is matched to your loan balance and term, so you're not over-insured or under-protected.

  • Term lengths aligned to your loan
  • Living benefits riders where available
  • Often no medical exam required

Retirement & Investment Planning

Cash-value policies (indexed universal life or properly structured whole life) build tax-deferred value you may be able to access on a tax-advantaged basis, supplement retirement income, and pass on a generally income-tax-free death benefit.

  • Tax-deferred cash value growth
  • Flexible access through policy loans and withdrawals
  • A death benefit that stays in place

Tax Strategies & Legacy Planning

Permanent life insurance can be one of the most tax-efficient ways to transfer wealth, protect a business, or leave a legacy for the next generation. We coordinate with your CPA and attorney so everything fits together.

  • Estate and legacy planning strategies
  • Key-person and buy-sell funding
  • Coordinated with your tax professional
Who We Help

Families and business owners who want a straight answer

01

New homeowners & refinancers

You just took on a big commitment. Make sure it never becomes your family's problem.

02

Parents & single-income households

When one paycheck carries the family, protecting it is the first priority.

03

Business owners & high earners

Looking for tax-advantaged growth and a smarter way to move wealth forward.

04

Declined or over-quoted before

We shop multiple carriers with different underwriting. A "no" from one company usually isn't the final answer.

Pick a time that works. We'll talk about your home, your family, and what you want the coverage to do.

3

Approved & protected

Many policies are approved within days, and many need no medical exam. You'll know exactly what you have and what it costs.

You'll never be pressured. If it isn't a fit, we'll tell you. Our job is to give you clear options and let you decide.

About

Meet Sam Holmes

Founder & Licensed Insurance Producer · NPN 22308775

Before insurance, Sam spent 14+ years as a small-business owner building and running pool service companies. He knows what it takes to build something from nothing: the long days, making payroll, and a mortgage that still comes due after a slow month. That experience is why he takes protecting families and businesses personally.

"Kindred" means family, and that's how we treat every client. Kindred Legacy Life is an independent agency, which means we shop many carriers instead of representing one. The recommendation is about you, not a company's quota. Based in Las Vegas, Nevada, Sam works with clients nationwide by phone and video and is licensed in multiple states.

FAQ

Questions families ask us

No. The private mortgage insurance (PMI) your lender requires protects the lender if you default. Mortgage protection life insurance pays your family directly, so they can pay off the home, cover expenses, or use the money however they need to. You own the policy, not the bank.

Often, no. Many of the carriers we work with offer simplified-issue coverage based on a short health questionnaire and a prescription history check. Some situations or larger coverage amounts may still require an exam; we'll tell you up front if that applies to you.

It depends on your age, health, the amount of coverage, and the type of policy. Many families are surprised by how affordable it is. Because we quote multiple carriers, you'll see options at different price points and can choose what fits your budget.

No. There is no fee for the call, the quotes, or the application. Like any licensed insurance producer, we're compensated by the insurance carrier when a policy is issued. Your premium is the same whether you use an agent or not.

Good question, and we would rather you ask it. If you received a call, text, or letter from us, it's because you (or someone in your household) requested information about mortgage protection or life insurance. Sam Holmes is a licensed insurance producer, NPN 22308775, and you can verify that license with your state's department of insurance. We're not affiliated with your lender, and we'll never ask for payment over the phone to "reserve" a rate.

Yes. Every policy comes with a "free look" period (typically 10 to 30 days depending on your state) during which you can cancel for a full refund. After that, you can cancel at any time. We'd rather you keep coverage that fits than feel stuck with something that doesn't.
