What Is an Inheritance Advance?

An inheritance advance allows heirs to access a portion of their expected inheritance long before the probate case is completed. Instead of waiting months or even years for the court to finalize the estate, you can receive funds in as little as 24–48 hours.

This is not a loan. There is no interest, no credit check, no income verification, and no monthly payments. The advance is simply repaid from the estate after probate closes. You never owe anything out of pocket.

If you need funds now to handle funeral expenses, property repairs, utilities, taxes, probate fees, or personal financial needs, an inheritance advance can provide fast, stress-free access to money you are already entitled to.

  • ✔ Fast funding — typically within 24–48 hours
  • ✔ No credit or income requirements
  • ✔ No interest, no monthly payments, no risk
  • ✔ You receive money now, the company is repaid later

Why Families Use Inheritance Advances

Probate can take months — sometimes over a year — leaving heirs unable to access funds they are legally entitled to. An inheritance advance provides fast financial relief while the estate works through the court process.

💸

Immediate Access to Funds

Cover funeral expenses, property repairs, legal fees, taxes, or personal needs without waiting for probate to finish.

Avoid Long Probate Delays

Probate can take months or years depending on court schedules. Advances remove financial stress during the waiting period.

🏠

Manage Property Quickly

Funds can be used for cleanouts, repairs, maintenance, or preparing the home for sale — without out-of-pocket cost.

📘

No Credit or Income Requirements

Because repayment comes from the estate — not the heir — there are no personal financial requirements.

How an Inheritance Advance Works

The process is simple, fast, and designed to help heirs access funds without waiting for the estate to close.

📩

1. Request an Estimate

Share basic information about the estate and your expected inheritance. No credit or income checks required.

📝

2. Receive Your Offer

You’ll get a personalized inheritance advance offer based on estimated estate value and probate status.

3. Get Funds in 24–48 Hours

Once documents are signed, funds are wired directly to you—usually within one or two business days.

🏛️

4. Estate Repays the Advance

When probate closes, the funding company is repaid directly from the estate. You owe nothing out of pocket.

Who Qualifies for an Inheritance Advance?

Basic Qualifications

Most heirs qualify for an inheritance advance because the requirements are simple and based on the estate’s value, not your personal finances.

  • ✔ You are a legal heir or beneficiary
  • ✔ The estate is currently in probate
  • ✔ Executor or administrator can be identified
  • ✔ The estate has enough value to support the advance
  • ✔ You want faster access to your inheritance

There are no credit checks, no job requirements, and no income verification. Qualification is based entirely on the expected distribution from the estate.

Heirs We Commonly Help

Inheritance advances are used by people from all financial backgrounds. Here are some of the most common situations:

  • ✔ Heirs facing immediate personal expenses
  • ✔ Families handling funeral costs or estate bills
  • ✔ Executors needing funds to maintain or repair a property
  • ✔ Out-of-state heirs coordinating probate remotely
  • ✔ Beneficiaries experiencing financial hardship
  • ✔ Anyone wanting access to their inheritance without delay

If you are entitled to a distribution from an estate, you likely qualify for an advance — even if probate has just begun.

This Is Not a Loan — It's an Advance on Your Inheritance

Why It’s Not Considered a Loan

An inheritance advance is not a loan because you never borrow money, never pay interest, and never make monthly payments. There is no credit check, no income requirement, and nothing is reported to credit bureaus.

  • ✔ No interest
  • ✔ No monthly payments
  • ✔ No credit check or employment verification
  • ✔ No personal liability if the estate sells for less than expected
  • ✔ Nothing owed out of your pocket — ever

You simply receive a portion of your inheritance early, and the funding company is repaid later from the estate proceeds.

How Repayment Works (Simple & Stress-Free)

Repayment happens automatically when the estate property is sold during the probate process. The advance company is paid directly from the seller-side closing proceeds.

  • ✔ No repayment comes from your personal bank account
  • ✔ Funds are deducted at closing when the property sells
  • ✔ No risk of going “out of pocket” even if market value changes
  • ✔ Completely hands-off — the title/closing company handles the repayment
  • ✔ You keep the remaining inheritance after closing

This makes the program ideal for heirs who need cash now, without getting involved in any type of loan or debt.

How Much Can You Receive?

The amount you can receive from an inheritance advance depends on the estimated value of the estate, the number of heirs, and the expected distribution you will receive. Most heirs qualify for an advance of 10%–30% of their anticipated inheritance.

This range ensures you get meaningful financial relief while leaving enough remaining value to cover estate obligations and ensure a smooth closing when the property sells.

Example Advance Amounts

• If your expected inheritance is $30,000, your advance may be between $3,000 – $9,000.

• If your expected inheritance is $60,000, your advance may be between $6,000 – $18,000.

• Larger estates may qualify for advances of $25,000 or more, depending on probate status.

Every situation is unique, and there is no obligation to accept an offer. You can review the estimate and choose what works best for your family.
