Whether you qualify for a senior settlement or not depends on the type of life insurance, the age and health of the insured and the amount of premiums needed every year.

Applicants
The most significant aspects, which determine the settlement amount are the combined effect of the health and age of the insured. If the life insurance is a survivorship policy, the age and health of both insured individuals is will be considered. Healthy seniors in their seventies would qualify and seniors as young as 65 may qualify if other health circumstances provide for a limited life expectancy.

Policies
The amount of life insurance premiums plays a major role in determining the offer in a senior settlement. The lower the annual premium amount, the higher the settlement offer. Most life insurance policies can be sold, including:

  • Term life insurance
  • Whole life insurance
  • Universal life insurance
  • Individual policies insurance
  • Group policies insurance
  • Corporate policies insurance

  • Businesses
    Retiring executives may find excess life insurance coverage in their "key man" policies and "buy & sell" agreements. These policies may have outlasted their purpose and would have significant life insurance coverage that requires a heavy premium commitment. Through a senior settlement, the retired executive can transform an otherwise disappearing asset into immediate cash.
