Annuities Quotes
Investors seeking annuities quotes are typically seeking either to find a fixed
annuities quote or the monthly payments they can receive on an immediate
annuity. Let’s deal with each of these and where you can find this annuity
quotes.
On deferred fixed annuities (where you make a deposit and interest
accumulates), there are many Internet sources that publish rates
for a select group of fixed annuities. These sources include insure.com,
AnnuityNet.com, AnnuityScout.com. These annuity investment quotes
will provide you information on various fixed annuities including
the interest rate, how long the rate is guaranteed, the term and
any special provisions such as bonus rates.
Regarding immediate annuities, the immediate annuity quote
is not expressed as an interest rate but rather as the monthly
payment you receive for a given investment. For example,
at a site like immediateannuities.com you enter your age, your
state and your investment amount and the annuity calculator displays
income quotes--the amount you will receive per month. This
site shows an average of sixteen insurance companies so to find
the immediate annuity quotes for individual companies we recommend
Comparative Annuity Reports. Although this is a printed
publication, they typically allow you to download the most recent
edition so in effect you have annuity quotes online.
If you encounter a site that provides annuity quotes but
first has you enter personal information (your name, etc),
this is likely a site where the annuity quote will not be
immediate and you will get a call from an annuity agent. Sites
that provide annuity quotes online will typically ask only your
age and other non personal information such as the investment amount. |
