Your questions, answered.
Why would the insurance company issue a contract yielding 6% in this market?
Secondary Market Annuities are existing contracts that trade at a discounted price. Sellers of these payments take a discount, which means a higher yield for you.
What happens to my payments when I die?
Your payments don’t die with you – they keep going to whoever you want them to go to. These are assets that transfer to your heirs just like any other investment. The difference is they’re guaranteed to keep paying regardless of what happens in the stock market, real estate, or anywhere else.
What about taxes on Secondary Market Annuities?
Each payment you receive has two parts: Principal – your original investment coming back (not taxable), and Interest – your profit (taxable as ordinary income).
Every payment stream comes with a detailed payment table showing exactly how much of each payment is principal versus interest. You can download this complete breakdown right from the inventory page before you even reserve a case. Your tax preparer will love this – it’s all laid out clearly.
How do I know Wholesale Income payments are safe?
You’re stepping into payment streams that are already funded, already paying, and already guaranteed by some of the strongest financial institutions on the planet. We’re talking MetLife, Berkshire Hathaway, New York Life – companies that have been around for over a century.
What about cost of living increases (COLAs)?
COLA stands for Cost of Living Adjustment, and it’s one of the smartest features you can get in a payment stream. Instead of getting the same payment amount for 20 or 30 years, your payments increase annually – typically by 3% each year.
Why are Wholesale Income payments higher yield than fixed annuities?
The yield on Wholesale Income Payments is higher simply because the seller of structured settlement payment rights is selling at a discount. These are existing, fully funded payment obligations. A buyer becomes the assignee of an existing payment stream- a note receivable bought at a discount.
Who are the parties in a structured settlement transaction?
In a structured settlement, an annuity issuer pays the injured payee. When the payee decides to sell their future payment, a court must approve the sale and then you become the recipient of the payments. You step into the shoes of the seller and receive the scheduled payments from the annuity issuer.
What are the costs and fees of Secondary Market Annuities?
Secondary Market Annuities have no ongoing fees, except minimal servicing and possible IRA costs. They stem from settlements already fully funded by an annuity, so no extra charges apply. It’s a simple, transparent approach—no hidden riders or complicated costs.
