Private house sale benefits and calculations for homeowners.

Below are the financials when you use annuities to sell your home to a co-operative.

Private Sale: Most money to you.

Real Estate Agent: 3%-5% less money to you.

It is possible for a homeowner whose house is listed by a Real Estate Agent to have a 6% annuity

What we would do in this case is to include the Real Estate Agents commission to the downpayment so you have the money to pay it. Each situation will have a customized solution to include the agents commission.

Why choose an annuity?

Plus you could stay resident in the house on the same terms as all other residents. You could then travel without worry and have a home base.
