Inheritance Funding FAQ

This page will serve as a comprehensive FAQ for heirs exploring inheritance funding options. Probate can be confusing, and many heirs have questions about how advances work, how long approval takes, and what documentation is required. This guide will provide clear, straightforward answers to the most common questions.

The full FAQ will explain the difference between inheritance advances, probate advances, and estate loans. It will also clarify how non-recourse funding works, including the fact that heirs do not repay advances out of pocket. Instead, repayment comes directly from the heir’s share of the estate once probate concludes.

Another key focus will be eligibility requirements. The FAQ will outline what types of estates qualify, how funding companies evaluate estate value, and what role the executor plays in the process. It will also address common concerns about credit checks, income requirements, and approval timelines.

While the full FAQ is being completed, you can explore our inheritance advances, review probate advances, or visit our inheritance funding knowledge base. To check whether your inheritance qualifies, you can begin a confidential request on our apply page.
