How to Find a Buyer for Your Annuity

Although an annuity is meant to provide steady income, particularly when you retire, there are circumstances under which you might decide to sell your annuity. You might decide to sell your annuity in order to buy a home, invest in a business, or to cover the costs of an emergency. Perhaps you've done the math and discovered that your annuity isn't the best most profitable option for you, and you'd like to reinvest. 

To find the right buyer for your annuity, start by deciding what sort of sale you want to make. Look for buyers who can give you the terms you desire. If time permits, get competing offers rather than going for the first buyer you find.
