So how do you learn about them and purchase one if it is the right choice for you?
Bulbrook/Drislane buys a Fixed Term Annuity from an Existing Annuitant and transfers the payment to you through a court transfer process. This process is available in 48 U.S. states through a state sanctioned transfer stature. Your name, IRA name, intermediate transferor or nominee, or payment assignment trust name will be stated in the transfer court order, which is generally obtained in the state where the Existing Annuitant resides.
The court will direct the insurance company that issued the Fixed Term Annuity to pay to the designated payee all of the annuity payments when they are due and as further assigned. The court order assures that the Existing Annuitant has relinquished title to their payment right as well as securely effecting the payment reassignment.
Payment is made whether the Existing Annuitant lives or dies during the period that the payments are due. Upon the death of the Buyer, the payments continue to the joint owners or the estate of the Buyer, as designated.
Payments will come to you by way of check mailed to your designated address or by direct deposit into your bank account. The insurance company usually determines the method of payment. As the Buyer, you may change the address for payment or bank account designation at any time by informing the insurance company directly.
