Loans Against Senior Life Settlements
A senior life settlement enables a senior citizen (over age 65) to sell his life insurance policy to a third party for more than its present cash surrender value. This settlement is referred to as a life settlement or a senior life insurance settlement. When a policy is settled, the third party gains all rights to it. In return, the original owner receives a lump sum amount in cash. However, if the sellers want to keep the policy and yet requires some emergency funds, a simple solution is to borrow a loan against the life settlement policy.
An important thing is that the borrower is required to clearly indicate the financial need when seeking a senior life settlement loan. A fixed period of time is allotted for repaying the loan in monthly installments. During this time, the policy remains the owner?s asset, so long as they payments are made.
To obtain this type of loan, the senior person should approach the company who they have the policy with. The owner is also required to fill out an application form with his personal information, as well as the details of the insurance policy. The loan amount is generally calculated on the basis of a percentage of the face value of the policy, but it differs from company to company. The company has the power to fix the terms for the loan and the dates for installments to be paid. The company keeps the policy papers until the loan is totally repaid. Insurance brokers or agents help to speed up the loan process. They usually take a small percentage in the form of a fee for acting as a broker. This is either paid by the borrower (in most cases) or the lender.
