CAN I SELL MY ANNUITY?

Many annuities don’t allow you to change your income option once you start receiving payments. Singer can offer you options. As annuities come with many different features, the easiest way to find out if your annuity qualifies is to give us a call. Generally, you can sell your annuity payments as long as:

• Your annuity is not qualified; and
• The annuity allows for assignments and/or changes in ownership.

Now is the time to speak with one of our annuity experts. The same Account Executive will accompany you through the entire process - from A to Z. Your Account Executive will not only give you a free quote, but will also review your annuity, submit the appropriate paperwork, answer any questions or concerns you may have and ensure the process is quick and efficient. We have no hidden fees and you can get your money in just a few short weeks!

TIMELINE

The following is an approximate timeline of how the process usually works:

• Day 1: Customer contacts Singer seeking a lump-sum payment for all or part of the annuity funding that's due to the customer.
• Day 1-3: Singer reviews and analyzes the paperwork outlining the payment stream. Singer then makes an offer for all or part of the payment stream due to the customer.
• Day 4-5: Customer reviews the options Singer has outlined, and decides to proceed with Singer's offer. Singer sends a contract for the customer to review with his/her attorney.
• Day 6-7: Customer returns signed and notarized contract back to Singer for execution.
• Day 8: Singer submits paperwork to annuity issuer to process the assignment.
• 2-4 weeks: Annuity issuer confirms compliance with the assignment and a check in the amount of the lump-sum the customer requested is sent

It's that easy! Again, Singer will even help you gather the necessary documents needed to help the process along.
