Thank you for visiting Houston Life and Annuity! We are Houston’s life insurance and annuity specialists. Buying life insurance can be a confusing process. What type do you buy? How much do you need? When does an annuity fit the bill? At HL & A, we answer all these questions.

If you are looking for a policy to protect your family, we will start by simply talking. That’s right….just a chat. What are you trying to do? What needs to be protected? What is causing you to shop now? We ask all this so we can get an accurate view of your personal situation. Most people with life insurance are inadequately covered. We make sure that your wishes (and budget) will be served by your life insurance policy.

If you are a business owner, we understand the challenges you face. Building the business is hard work. Passing the business to your heirs can be even harder. A Business Continuation Plan can make all the difference. Ensure that your family will get the full value out of your business when you pass (generally tax free)! Leave your business to your child or Key Employee seamlessly while providing sufficient liquidity for your surviving spouse in retirement. If you have a partner, make sure enough money comes in the door to buy out their share of the company when they (or you) pass on. You may love their spouse and/or family, but that doesn’t mean they’d make great business partners! Hugely influential Key Employees can be a mixed blessing. Obviously they are immensely valuable to your business with the skills and good will they bring to the table. Have you ever thought about what would happen to the business should they die? A Key Man policy would potentially help.

Considering an annuity? What is the source of the funds? Do you have old 401Ks? Did you inherit an IRA? How do you know an annuity is the best fit? Do you need income? An annuity is a fantastic vehicle but you need to make sure you get one that fits your specific needs.

Life Insurance does not need to be hard. It needs to be approached comfortably and with a lot of listening. Houston Life and Annuity is here to help you navigate this process.
