The Basics Of Inheritance Funding

By Kerri Stout


Following the death of a loved one, there is a somewhat lengthy process that comes with carrying out the estate disbursement detailed in a will. Probate court must certify the will and address any issues that may be raised by anyone contesting all or part of the will. Inheritance funding is a type of loan that provides an advance on funds that are left to a beneficiary.

The heir, or beneficiary, is the person noted in a will to inherit property, money, or both when the principle person dies. For inheritances, loans or advances are available on monetary amounts. Companies that provide this service know that wills can be tied up in probate for months. Instead of suffering financially, these advances and loans provide relief.

You should understand that this funding is not always in the form of a loan. It is an advance on some of the money you are inheriting. The company charges a fee for this advance. Advances do not have interest that accrues. After the funds are released by the court, the company deducts the amount that was advanced and the fee from the funds.

Another type is a loan. The lender provides you with a loan amount that you are approved for based on what you are supposed to inherit. This type can work similar to an advance, but there is one big difference. Lending companies tend to charge interest and may also charge a slew of fees as well.

Regardless of which type of method is used, you will need to fill out an application for the company. You will be required to submit documentation regarding the amount you are due to inherit. In many cases, the company will require contact information for the probate lawyer. Once you have provided everything the company needs, your application and documentation will be reviewed.

From this point, your documentation and application will be reviewed. The company will decide to approve or deny your request. They will also decide on how much they are willing to advance or loan to you. This approval process can take as little as a few days or as much as two or three weeks based on the complication of your case.

You should also be aware of the terms of your agreement. Some companies have a deadline on repayment. In these cases, usually with loans, you are required to pay the money back by a certain date. If the will is still going through probate, you may have to pay out of pocket, unless the loan is set up to be taken from the inherited funds.

These advances and loans provide beneficiaries with the aid they need while they are waiting for the probate process to come to an end. Regardless of your circumstances, this financial assistance is a means of accessing needed funds. It is a good idea to have the probate lawyer assist you and examine your contract before you commit.
