Your Clients May Be Sitting on Hidden Value

Many of your clients are holding life insurance policies they no longer need — and are considering lapsing or surrendering them back to the carrier for pennies on the dollar. A life settlement gives them a significantly better alternative: a lump-sum cash payment from the secondary market, often six to eight times more than the policy's cash surrender value.

Use the calculator above to run a preliminary estimate for any qualifying client in minutes. There is no cost or obligation to you or your client. An Abacus Life specialist is available to support you through every step of the process, from initial valuation to closing.

Important: This tool is for licensed advisor and agent use only and provides preliminary estimates subject to full underwriting review. Abacus Life handles all compliance, paperwork, and closing support so you can focus on your client relationship. Questions? Contact your dedicated Abacus Life representative at (321) 999-3380.
Client Eligibility

Does Your Client Qualify?

Identifying a qualifying client is straightforward. Here are the three key criteria to look for when evaluating whether a life settlement is the right conversation to have.

Age 65 or Older

The ideal life settlement candidate is 65 or older. Younger insureds with significant health changes may also qualify, making age just one part of the overall picture.

Change in Health Status

A decline in the insured's health since the policy was issued typically increases settlement value. Chronic illness, reduced life expectancy, or a recent diagnosis are strong indicators of eligibility.

Policy Face Value $100K+

Policies with a death benefit of $100,000 or more are the most competitive in the secondary market. Universal life, whole life, and convertible term policies are all commonly eligible.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from advisors and agents about working with Abacus Life and placing life settlement cases.

(321) 999-3380
What types of policies qualify for a life settlement?
Most types of life insurance policies may qualify, including universal life, whole life, variable universal life, and convertible term policies. When evaluating a case, the most important factors are the face value of the policy, the age and health of the insured, and premium obligations. Our team can help you quickly assess eligibility for any client.
How does a life settlement compare to a policy lapse or surrender?
When a client lapses or surrenders a policy, they receive only the cash surrender value — or nothing at all. A life settlement pays the client a lump sum from the secondary market, typically six to eight times more than the surrender value. For clients who no longer need coverage, this is almost always the superior financial outcome and a conversation worth having.
How does Abacus Life support advisors through the process?
Abacus Life provides full back-office support to advisors and agents. We handle APS retrieval, life expectancy evaluation, pre-pricing, compliance, and all closing paperwork. You stay focused on the client relationship while we manage the transaction from start to finish.
Is there a cost to advisors for using this calculator or placing a case?
There is no cost to you as an advisor. The calculator is free to use and there is no obligation to proceed. Abacus Life is compensated at closing, and advisors are eligible to receive compensation for cases they refer. Contact us to learn more about our advisor compensation structure.
How long does a typical life settlement case take to close?
Most life settlement cases close within 60 to 120 days from initial submission. Timing can vary depending on the responsiveness of the insurance carrier and case complexity. Abacus Life actively manages each case to keep the process moving and keep you informed at every stage.
