All you have to do is write to your insurance company and let them know you wish to surrender the policy. They will send you a check for whatever the cash value is. If you are over 50 you will get more money then your cash value with a life settlement option. I can help you look into options with that. 4LifeGuild

Most term life insurance policies do not have cash value unless the are "return of premium" type policies. Cash value is generally a part of whole life and some universal life policies. The latter policies are designed to accumulate cash for use as the policy matures. Generally, whole life endows at age 100 when the cash equals the death benefit. Cash value policies should be examined by your financial adviser (CPA) to make sure they will accomplish their goal.

Yes, Whole Life Insurance policies are designed to build cash value over time. The cash accumulated can then increase the death benefit, or can be borrowed as a loan against the policy, and re-paid back to the policy.
Can you take out a loan from all life insurance policies?
No. Only whole life insurance policies (sometimes called "permanent insurance") accumulate cash value. Policy loans are generally available from the accrued cash value. Since term insurance does not gather cash value, policy loans are unavailable.
Most states require that permanent life policies have some cash value by the end of which year?
I am not sure that is regulated by the state... you usually have some cash value in most policies going into or around the 5th year. If you are planning on cashing in than whole life is not the right policy for you. 4lifeguild
What type life insurance generates immediate cash value?
Whole life insurance is a type of life insurance that generates immediate cash value. With whole life policies, a portion of the premium payments goes towards building cash value, which grows at a guaranteed rate over time. This cash value can be accessed through loans or withdrawals, providing liquidity to the policyholder while still maintaining life insurance coverage.

What is the lapse rate of whole life policies?
The lapse rate of whole life policies refers to the percentage of policyholders who discontinue their policies by stopping premium payments or surrendering the policy before the end of the policy term. This rate can vary based on factors such as the insurer, the economic environment, and the policyholder's demographic characteristics. Generally, whole life policies tend to have lower lapse rates compared to term life policies, as they accumulate cash value and provide lifelong coverage. Understanding lapse rates is crucial for insurers in managing risk and maintaining profitability.
