We commonly get a few emails from both consumers and professionals inquiring about life expectancy report pricing. A life expectancy report is a large factor in the potential for a life settlement. This report determines the expectancy of the insured, and is used to price and underwrite the policy.

There are a handful of LE companies that provide these reports and prices can range from $250 to $500.

Here are some companies that can assist:
AVS
Fasano
21st Services
ISC
EMSI

What is a Life Settlement LE?

When considering a Life Settlement,  it is important to ask yourself one important question.

What’s the net payout from my settlement?

An important factor to consider during your settlement negotiations is what you’ll keep after taxes. A life settlement is the sale of an asset, a taxable event. Taxes are currently in discussion with regulators, but currently most individuals are following 3 different steps.

• You are not required to pay taxes on the premiums you’ve paid since you’ve owned the policy

• You owe ordinary income tax on the difference between premiums paid and the cas surrender value.

• You pay capital gains on the amount by which the payout exceeds the cash value — which is likely to be most of the settlement depending on how long you’ve owned the policy and how much premium has been put in.

Understanding the tax implications will better prepare you for the net amount you will receive from settlement.

This is a question that not many professional, agents, and brokers address. Well, now is the time.

As you have seen in the last year with the growth of Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.. consumers and potential customers can quickly research an individual or company with relative ease.

A life settlement transaction can be a very important event to a senior policy holder, family, and even the agent representing them. It is important to make sure you have the credibility and can prove this credibility to potential clients.

You might ask, Well how do you do that? There are numerous ways through trade publications, BBB, etc.. but one of the quickest and easiest routes is via the Internet.
