Can I Get A Cash Advance On My Inheritance?

Yes. If you are a qualifying heir or beneficiary of an estate currently in probate, you may be able to get a cash advance on inheritance before the estate distributes your share.

TriMark provides cash in exchange for an assignment of a specified portion of your expected inheritance.

When the estate distributes funds, the inheritance lender is paid the assigned amount directly from your share, and you receive the remaining balance.

There are no monthly payments, and your credit score does not determine eligibility.

To qualify for a cash advance on an inheritance, we need to confirm the estate’s validity, verify your right to inherit, and ensure that your anticipated distribution can support the proposed advance.

Being named in a will is a good starting point, but it doesn’t automatically mean you’ll be approved for an inheritance cash advance.

Who Qualifies For A Cash Advance On Inheritance?

To qualify for an inheritance advance with us, you generally need to be:

  • At least 18 years old
  • A verifiable, uncontested heir or beneficiary
  • Inheriting from an estate currently in probate
  • Expecting at least $17,000 in cash from the estate
  • Residing in the United States, with the estate also located in the United States

We must also be able to provide funding in the applicable state. Check our inheritance funding availability guide to see whether funding is available in your state, and we can review your request.

Meeting these preliminary requirements does not guarantee approval. We still need to examine the estate, your expected share, and any circumstances affecting the eventual distribution.

What Determines Whether My Inheritance Can Support An Advance?

We evaluate the inheritance you are likely to receive—not simply the estate’s total value.

An estate worth $500,000 does not establish how much one beneficiary will inherit. Debts, expenses, taxes, other beneficiaries’ interests, and existing claims may affect the amount available for your distribution. Likewise, owning valuable property does not necessarily mean the estate has cash ready to distribute.

Our review centers on three questions:

  1. Can we verify your entitlement?
    We need reliable information establishing your interest in the estate and the share you are expected to receive.
  2. What is the anticipated value of your share?
    We assess the expected distribution in light of the estate’s assets and obligations.
  3. What could affect payment?
    Disputes, prior assignments, uncertain valuations, or other claims may limit the amount available or prevent us from making an offer.

We review the estate’s value, asset types, and stage of administration rather than relying solely on an estimated inheritance amount.

If you do not know your exact share, tell us what you know. We can identify the information needed to evaluate it.

Can I Get A Cash Advance On Inheritance With Bad Credit?

Yes. Bad credit alone does not prevent you from qualifying for a cash advance on your inheritance.

We purchase part of your expected inheritance rather than extend personal credit. We therefore do not require a credit check or base eligibility on your credit score.

That distinction does not eliminate our review; it changes what we evaluate. Instead of assessing your ability to repay from income, we assess the estate and the inheritance available for repayment.

Inheritance Funding Is A 3-Step Process

For most states and counties in the US, the probate documents needed for an inheritance advance are available online directly from the probate court. Our processors can securely download them and begin reviewing them immediately.

After you’re approved for an advance and documents are signed, we wire the funds directly to your bank account so you can access them immediately.

3. receive Your Funds

After approval and e-signing, we wire funds directly to your bank account. Repayment comes from the estate after probate closes.

Can I Get A Cash Advance Before Probate Closes?

Yes. We provide inheritance advances while probate is underway, before your share is distributed. You do not need to wait until the executor is ready to make a final distribution before asking us to review your inheritance.

However, probate needs to be open, and we need enough information to positively identify the estate, establish your entitlement, and evaluate the expected proceeds.

An advance does not close probate, authorize an early estate distribution, or transfer the executor’s responsibilities to us. It is a separate transaction involving part of your anticipated share.

What If My Inheritance Includes A House Or Other Property?

Tell us whether you expect cash, property, or proceeds from an eventual sale. These circumstances differ and can affect how we evaluate your request.

For example, an estate may own a house that will be sold and the proceeds divided among beneficiaries. That differs from a will leaving the house itself to one beneficiary, with no anticipated cash distribution.

We generally require an expected cash inheritance of at least $17,000. A valuable property alone does not establish eligibility for a cash advance.

We need to understand what you are entitled to receive and whether you expect a cash distribution — not simply what the property might be worth.

Can I Get An Advance If Other Heirs Are Involved?

Other beneficiaries do not automatically prevent you from qualifying. We need to determine whether your own interest can be identified and evaluated separately.

The distinction is between a shared estate and a disputed inheritance. Several beneficiaries may have clearly established shares. By contrast, a disagreement about the will, ownership of an asset, or entitlement to inherit can make the expected distribution uncertain.

We need to verify an uncontested right to inherit. Tell us about any disagreement affecting your entitlement or share so we can determine whether funding may be available.

Also disclose any prior advance or assignment. We must evaluate the portion of your inheritance that remains available, not treat an already assigned share as uncommitted.

Does Getting An Advance Reduce My Inheritance?

Yes, it will. The amount assigned under the agreement is deducted from the inheritance you would otherwise receive. That amount includes the cost of obtaining cash early; it is not necessarily equal to the cash we advance.

Suppose your eventual distribution is $50,000 and you have assigned $12,000 under an advance agreement. After that assignment, $38,000 remains, assuming no other deductions.

Before deciding, compare the amount we offer now with the amount assigned from your later distribution. Our page on inheritance advance costs explains that comparison in detail.

How Do I Find Out Whether I Qualify?

Apply for an inheritance advance and provide the basic information you have:

  • The deceased person’s name
  • The state and county handling probate
  • The probate case number, if available
  • The executor, administrator, or estate attorney’s contact information
  • Your estimated share and the cash amount you would like to receive
  • Any dispute, previous advance, or assignment affecting your inheritance

You do not need every answer before contacting us. Accurate information gives us a starting point, and we will explain what else we need.

We will evaluate your expected inheritance and explain any offer before you decide.
