There are two types of life annuity sales:

The free life annuity : the seller transfers his property to the buyer who can occupy it as soon as the deed of sale is signed without having to wait for the death of the seller.
The occupied life annuity : the seller transfers his property to the buyer, but retains his right of use and habitation. He can therefore continue to occupy it until his death.

The life estimation takes into account different parameters such as the market value of the property, if the property is occupied by the seller (occupied life annuity), the age of the seller(s) and their gender, values determining their statistical life expectancy.
