Who Is A Qualified Candidate?

Mature men and women over age sixty-five years of age who have an existing life insurance policy and whose circumstances have changed since purchasing the policy originally may qualify for a purchase and sale of their policy. Financial advisors view this as a powerful and innovative wealth and estate planning tool.

How Much Is A Policy Worth?

There are a number of variables that determine the offered amount for a policy, including the following;

* Age (of course) * Premium cost
* Client's Health * Type of Insurance
* Death Benefit * Insurer Rating
* State of Residence *Underwriting criteria

Note: As a general rule the most heavily weighted items are the age of the insured (the younger a person is a lesser current value will apply), the health condition, and the amount of the premiums that apply are the primary determinants in arriving at the price offered for a policy.

What benefits are there for the insured?

First ? there is absolutely no cost for a policy appraisal
Offers liquidity to clients
Eliminates the insured having to pay premiums
Funding for 'Alternative' products that fit current needs
Offers an innovative and better solution for current status
Provides another alternative for divesting policies that are no longer needed or wanted. (As opposed to letting policies lapse or accepting the cash surrender value established by the originating life insurance company.)

How Does selling A Policy Work?

1. Policy owner (or professional financial advisor) requests and authorizes a policy evaluation.

2. Policy buyer obtains needed documentation, including policy information and physician statements, etc.

The highest possible offer is obtained in the secondary market.
The offer is submitted to the insured for acceptance.
If accepted, a contract is sent for signatures.
The change of ownership is completed and funds are released to the previous owner (usually the insured).
