How the Process Works

What happens after I receive an offer on my policy?

After you receive an offer, you will have time to review it and decide whether it meets your financial needs. There is no pressure to accept. If multiple buyers participate, you may receive more than one offer, allowing you to compare options.

Your marketplace or broker will explain the details, including the amount you will receive, what happens next, and whether any additional documents are required.

If you choose to accept an offer, the closing process begins. During closing, you sign documents that transfer ownership of the policy to the buyer. Once the buyer and carrier complete their part, your payout is released. If you decide not to accept an offer, the process simply ends and your policy remains unchanged.

“They made the whole process simple.”
I didn’t even know you could sell a life insurance policy until I found Settle. They explained everything clearly, handled the paperwork, and got me an offer much higher than I expected.

"I finally got real value from my policy."
After paying premiums for years, I thought about letting my policy lapse. Settle helped me turn it into cash that I used for medical expenses and to help my grandkids.

"Transparent, professional, and fast."
I’d looked into selling my policy before, but the process always felt confusing. Settle made it easy to understand, kept me updated, and helped me close quickly with no pressure.
