How InheritNOW Works: 4 Simple Steps
The InheritNOW process is designed to be fast, transparent, and hassle-free for heirs and beneficiaries. We handle the heavy lifting of documentation and coordination with the probate attorney so you can access your funds without legal headaches. Unlike a bank loan, there are no credit checks, no monthly payments, and the process can be completed in as little as 48 hours. From your initial application to the direct deposit of your funds, we prioritize speed and clarity, ensuring you have the liquidity you need while the court finishes the probate process.

Waiting for probate to close is often the most stressful part of inheriting. The InheritNOW process is built to eliminate that stress by providing a streamlined path to your money. We don’t just provide funding; we provide a partnership that navigates the legal hurdles for you.
Step 1: Consultation and Information Gathering
The journey begins with a simple conversation. You provide basic information about the estate, the deceased, and your expected inheritance. If you have the Will or court filings handy, great! If not, don’t worry—our team can coordinate with the probate attorney or estate administrator to gather the necessary legal documents on your behalf.
Step 2: Fast Professional Assessment
Once we have the documents, our specialists perform a comprehensive review of the estate’s health. We look at assets, potential debts, and court timelines. Because we specialize exclusively in inheritance advances, we can typically complete this assessment and issue an approval within 24 to 48 hours of receiving the paperwork.
Step 3: A Transparent Written Offer
We believe in “no surprises.” You will receive a written offer that clearly outlines the amount we can advance and the fixed fee for the service. Because this is not a loan, you will never see a monthly bill or an interest statement. The fee is only paid once the estate is officially settled by the court.
Step 4: Funding and Final Distribution
Upon acceptance, we wire the funds directly to your bank account. From there, we take on the “waiting game.” We stay in touch with the estate’s legal representative. When probate finally closes, the estate administrator usually pays InheritNOW directly from your portion of the distribution. Your obligation is fulfilled, and you’ve already been using your money for months or years.
Frequently Asked Questions about the Process
Ideally, a copy of the Death Certificate, the Will, and Letters of Administration (court appointment). However, if you don’t have these, we can often pull them from court records or request them from the estate attorney.
No. We do not pull credit reports. Our decision is based entirely on the value of the estate and your legal status as a beneficiary.
Once we receive all required documentation from the estate attorney, most heirs receive their funds via wire transfer within 1 to 2 business days.
