Why Use a Settlement Calculator?
Our calculator offers a fast and convenient way to estimate the potential cash value of your life insurance policy. While not a final offer, it gives you a starting point to evaluate whether a life settlement is the right choice for your financial goals.
Understanding Your Life Settlement Value
Life settlements allow policyholders to sell their life insurance policies for a cash payout, often higher than the surrender value but less than the death benefit. The value of your settlement depends on several factors:
Policy Face Value:
The death benefit, or face value, of your life insurance policy is a primary factor in determining its settlement value. Larger policies generally yield higher payouts.
Premium Costs:
Policies with lower premiums are more attractive to buyers, as they involve less financial risk. Your settlement value reflects how affordable the policy is for potential investors.
Health and Age:
Your health status and age play a significant role in calculating the value of your policy. Policies of older or less healthy individuals typically yield higher settlements.
Policy Type:
Whole life, universal life, and convertible term life policies are often eligible for life settlements. The specifics of your policy type affect its market value.
Types of Life Insurance Policies and Their Settlement Potential
Different life insurance policies have varying levels of appeal to buyers, which influences their settlement value. Understanding how your policy fits into the market is key to assessing your options.
Policies with flexible terms and lower ongoing costs tend to attract more interest from investors. Comprehensive documentation of your policy terms can enhance its value during the settlement process.
Recent data shows that policyholders receive an average of 15-25% of their policy’s face value through life settlements, depending on the factors mentioned above.
| Policy Type | Average Settlement Value | Key Characteristics |
|---|---|---|
| Whole Life Insurance | 20% – 40% of face value | Permanent coverage with cash value |
| Universal Life Insurance | 15% – 35% of face value | Flexible premiums, adjustable benefits |
| Convertible Term Life Insurance | 10% – 25% of face value | Term policy with conversion option |
Maximizing Your Life Settlement Value
Maximizing the value of your life settlement requires a thorough understanding of market conditions and clear communication of your policy’s strengths. Engaging experienced professionals can significantly improve your outcome.
Presenting detailed information about your policy and working with reputable brokers ensures that you receive competitive offers.

Having clear records of your policy terms, payment history, and health status is essential for securing the highest possible settlement value. Organized documentation helps buyers assess the policy’s risk and potential return.
