About Life Settlement Transactions:

A life settlement transaction typically occurs when an individual of advanced aged no longer wishes to pay, or is unable to afford, a premium payment on their life insurance policy. When faced with the difficult choice of expending diminishing cash resources to make premium payments or simply allowing their policy to lapse, the insured senior now has the opportunity to sell the policy for an immediate cash payment.  Current life settlement transactions are allowing the individual to receive an average of eight times the surrender value for an asset that was previously illiquid and that they may have had to abandon.  More and more seniors are becoming aware of the potential of these transactions creating a growing supply of policies available for purchase by organizations such as Absolute Life Solutions, Inc.
