how does life insurance work
If you are a real estate investor who wants to use a life insurance policy for real estate investing, you need to have a maximum over-funded life insurance policy. When you get an illustration from your life insurance agent, how do you know that the policy has been designed properly? and is a maximum over-funded life insurance policy? Understanding life insurance illustrations isn't easy.
Private banking strategies like The Double Play require a maximum over-funded life insurance policy to get the most benefit. Not every "over-funded" policy is funded right up to the legal Maximum (Minimum non-MEC). The best way to know that your policy design is funded right to the minimum non-MEC threshold is to look at the ratio of the cash value to the premium in the first policy year of your Illustration. If it is not 85-90%, then the policy is likely not designed right.
