Life Estate: doable or to many issues

I am looking at using a life estate, but am getting push back from my broker, and they are questioning how to price it.

Would a property being sole this way be priced by backing out the rental value of for the time until I dean from the FMV?

For this example assume FMV=500K, annual rental value 42K, 5% annual increase in rent, and I am going to live 10 yrs.

So I would sell for 750, but net 221,728.51, and have the right to life there for 10 yrs.

$ 42,000.00
$ 44,100.00 (42K*1.05)
$ 46,305.00  
$ 48,620.25  
$ 51,051.26  
$ 53,603.83  
$ 56,284.02  
$ 59,098.22  
$ 62,053.13  
$ 65,155.79  
$ 528,271.49 Rental value
750000-rent value  
SALE PRICE= $ 221,728.51  

So would I walk w/ 221K and a place to live the rest of  my life?
