What Is a Life Settlement?

A life settlement is the sale of an existing life insurance policy to a third party for more than its cash surrender value but less than its death benefit.

Your Policy Has Value—Even If You Don't Need It Anymore

Many policyholders don't realize their life insurance is a financial asset that can be sold. Whether you can no longer afford the premiums, your beneficiaries no longer need the protection, or your financial situation has changed, selling your policy can unlock significant cash.

Our team works with multiple licensed life settlement providers to ensure you receive competitive offers and the highest possible payout for your policy.

Common Reasons People Sell:

  • Can no longer afford premium payments
  • Beneficiaries no longer need coverage
  • Changed financial circumstances or retirement plans
  • Health decline makes maintaining coverage difficult
  • Need immediate cash for medical or living expenses
  • Divorce or change in estate planning needs

The Difference Is Significant

Most policyholders receive 2-5 times more through a life settlement than by surrendering their policy.

Cash Surrender Value
Lower

What the insurance company pays you to cancel your policy. Typically much lower than your policy's actual market value.

Life Settlement Value
4X+ More*

What third-party buyers will pay for your policy. On average, policyholders receive four times or more through a life settlement than surrendering.

Why the Difference?

Cash surrender value is based on the policy's cash accumulation. A life settlement value is based on the policy's death benefit, your age, health status, and current market conditions.

The amount you can receive depends on: The type of policy you have, your policy's premiums, your age, and your health status. Our team shops multiple licensed providers to ensure you receive competitive offers based on your specific situation.

*According to the Life Insurance Settlement Association (LISA), policyholders who sell their life insurance policies receive an average of four times or more than they would from surrendering their policy back to the insurance company. Individual results vary based on age, health, policy type, and market conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about selling your life insurance policy.

What types of policies qualify for a life settlement?
Most permanent life insurance policies qualify, including whole life, universal life, and variable universal life. Term policies may qualify if they're convertible to permanent coverage. Typically, policies with a face value of $100,000 or more and policyholders aged 65+ are most likely to qualify.
How much can I expect to receive for my policy?
Life settlement values vary based on your age, health, policy type, and death benefit amount. Generally, payouts range from 2-5 times the cash surrender value. Our team shops multiple buyers to ensure you receive the highest competitive offer.
How long does the process take?
The typical life settlement process takes 30-60 days from initial review to receiving your payment. This includes policy evaluation, shopping multiple buyers, negotiating offers, and completing paperwork.
Are there any costs or fees to me?
Our policy review and quote service is 100% free with no obligation. If you proceed with a sale, fees are typically deducted from your settlement proceeds by the buyer—not paid upfront by you.
Are life settlement proceeds taxable?
Tax implications vary based on your individual situation. Generally, the amount you receive up to your cost basis (premiums paid) is tax-free, while amounts above that may be subject to ordinary income or capital gains tax. We recommend consulting with a tax advisor to understand your specific tax situation.
What happens to my beneficiaries?
When you sell your policy, the death benefit transfers to the buyer. Your beneficiaries will no longer receive a payout. However, you receive immediate cash that you can use however you choose—including purchasing a smaller, more affordable policy if needed.
Is my information kept confidential?
Absolutely. All policy reviews and settlement transactions are handled with complete confidentiality. Your personal and medical information is never sold or shared outside of the licensed settlement providers evaluating your policy.
Can I still keep my policy if I don't like the offer?
Yes! There is no obligation to accept any offer. You can review the settlement amount, compare it to your policy's surrender value, and decide what's best for your situation. You're free to keep your policy at any time.
