Life annuity: how does it work?
The life annuity sale allows property owners to sell their property and to continue to live in their apartment or house, while collecting a life annuity.
How does a bare ownership sale work?
The life annuity sale is a traditional real estate sale made in front of a notary. The buyer must pay a fixed sum on the day of the sale (called the “lump sum payment”). The balance must be paid monthly until the death of the seller, which will constitute a regular financial income (called “the life annuity”).
How does the occupied life annuity work?
In the case of an occupied life annuity, the owner transfers the property to the purchaser but retains the right of use and habitation. The owner receives a lump sum payment and a monthly life annuity, but gives up the possibility of renting out the property.
How does the free life annuity work?
In the case of a free life annuity, the owner transfers the property to the buyer. The owner receives a lump sum payment and a monthly life annuity, but gives up the possibility of renting it out and of living in the property. The buyer can occupy the property as soon as the deed of sale is signed without having to wait for the death of the seller.
How does a bare ownership sale work?
In the case of a bare ownership sale, the owner of the property, called the “bare owner,” sells the right of ownership, without selling the use of the property. The owner can continue to live in the property and rent it out until his/her death. Read the article about the five advantages of a bare ownership sale.
