Income Annuities Not Available in Texas?

[dgoldenz]

Are there any agents here familiar with Texas laws regarding income annuities? I just looked at the RBC Enhanced Choice and the Allianz Masterdex X and neither are approved for sale in Texas.....is there a regulation that prohibits bonus income annuities in Texas, or just a coincidence? Anyone know of a good 3rd option for an income annuity from a reputable (read: A rating or better) company? Any advice is appreciated, thanks.

There are several worth considering. What is the time horizon, and the expected First year premium?

Probably looking to begin a payout within the first 5 years. Even if you know of something which allows deposits during the first year it may fit this clients needs.


It seems alot of the bonus income products out there are SPDA's...
