Investing in Real Estate by Selling Structured Assets

INVESTING IN REAL ESTATE: HOW YOUR LIFE INSURANCE ANNUITY OR OTHER STRUCTURED ASSET CAN HELP Families that understand the importance of saving for the future often try to find good places to put their money that will keep pace with inflation or produce gains over time. One popular way to invest is to buy real estate. Even though the real estate market has been getting downward pressure lately, there’s still a common sentiment that land and real estate are good long-term investments. One problem with investing in real estate is that, unlike with other kinds of investments, those who

Get Out of Debt by Selling Your Life Insurance Annuity

If you have major amounts of debt, either from a credit card or borrowed against assets like real estate, you’re not alone. Recent numbers on debt levels carried by American families reveal that many of us rely on borrowed money to maintain a standard of living. For example, in June, the New York Times cited an estimate by the Federal Reserve that nearly 75% of American households owe money to creditors, and while the kinds of debt and amounts of these debts change (credit cards and student loans are two top debt types), the fact remains that debt, to most Americans, is very real. Even the

Selling a Structured Settlement for Health Care Needs

With all of the uncertainty about the costs of health care for today’s average consumer and family, selling a structured settlement  is a great way to ensure that you can pay for any financial emergencies related to your health. Americans are seeing health care costs skyrocket, and with changes in the insurance industry, as well as changes in provider policies and new legislation, there may be more out-of-pocket expenses for some kinds of care. Selling a structured

Structured Settlement Buyers Are Still Buying, Even In a Down Economy

When an economy makes a sharp downward turn, some things change quickly, while others tend to stay the same. For example, the news media usually notices the differences between necessities, which people keep buying, and “luxury items,” where merchants tend to see sales plummet as consumers scrimp and save. The same is often true in the world of financial products: where the volume of certain types of loans have dropped off while structured settlement  sales are still popular.

Structured Settlements: What is an Assignee?

An assignee is someone who has been named as the holder of a specific contract or granted rights in specific payments when they come due. In some cases, a contract holder is someone who was named as such when the agreement was initially set up. In other cases, the contract holder, beneficiary or assignee can change according to a legal agreement to buy, sell or otherwise transfer a contract. Think of the assignee as the person “standing in the shoes” of the original person named in an agreement. For example, if the title on a piece of real estate is transferred into your name, you are

Home Improvements and Quick Cash with Structured Settlements

Doing any kind of home renovation can be pricey, whether it’s planned periodic maintenance and repair, a strategy to raise resale value like updating a kitchen or bath, or an emergency affecting the living conditions of your home.

Structured Settlement Sales for ‘Rainy Day Funds’

Many Americans don’t have enough saved up for a “rainy day”— an emergency that requires a quick cash infusion. But those holding structured settlements  have an easy way to get money to pay for all of the many emergencies that can happen to a family. Financial experts agree that one critical aspect of preparing for the future is to build up enough savings so that your household can handle an unexpected large expense, whether it’s related to health care, a natural disaster, or

Using the Structured Settlement Process to Start Your Business

Starting a new business can be a great way to leverage existing skills and knowledge about an industry into a long-term source of income, while gaining more control over your career. If you’ve been thinking about forming a start-up or small business, think about this: a down economy can actually be a good environment for a fledgling enterprise. One reason that some small businesses do well in a down economy is that competition – for customers or employees – can be less intense. And a less-crowded field offers a new business an opportunity to get more visibility in a local market, for
