The Difference Between Trust, Estate, and Probate Loans

November 24, 2021 12:00 pm Published by Inheritance Loans USA

You may have heard the terms estate loan, probate loan, and trust loan and wondered whether they are the same thing. All three are types of inheritance loans. For the most part, they are used interchangeably to describe any type of loan where the assets of an estate are used as collateral. However, there are some differences between them. Inheritance loans are not really loans, but advances.

During probate or other administrative procedures, the heirs of an estate or the beneficiaries of a trust may not be able to access funds. In that case, they may want a loan until the will is probated or until the trust can begin to disperse funds. It can be easy for people to think of this as a way for eager heirs to get their hands on money, but estate law can be surprisingly complex. If estate assets are tied up in real estate, getting a loan on the estate can help speed up the probate process.

What is a trust?

A trust is a legal entity that holds and distributes assets on behalf of one or more beneficiaries. People use trusts for a variety of reasons. They can be a less complicated way to distribute assets, protect assets from creditors, and help reduce inheritance taxes. However, trusts can also make it more complicated for heirs to access money.

What is an estate?

An estate refers to all of the property owned by a person at the time of their death. It includes real estate, personal property, stocks, cash, and other tangible and intangible assets.

What is probate?

Probate is a court-supervised process that affirms a will, ensures that creditors are paid, and distributes assets in accordance with the wishes of the testator.

What are inheritance loans?

Inheritance loans are loans against the assets of an estate. Usually, they are loans made with the real property in the estate as collateral, but other assets may serve as collateral under some circumstances.

Can you get inheritance loans before a death?

Maybe. However, it would not actually be an inheritance loan. Some families establish trusts during the lifetime of the person establishing the trust. In those instances, you may be able to get a trust loan before the person dies. However, for a true estate loan, which depends on assets being distributed after death, an estate must be in probate or a trust in administration before you can get a loan. There are no inheritance loans based on the idea that you might be named an heir.

    Inheritance Loans USA does not provide interest-based Inheritance Loans or Probate Loans, but rather, performs transactions that are referred to as Inheritance Cash Advance Assignments. Essentially, we purchase a portion of an heir's expected inheritance.
    An Inheritance Cash Advance Assignment is not an interest-bearing loan, therefore, there is no risk of recourse for non-payment. Our clients are not personally responsible for repayment except in the case of fraud or misrepresentation. Commonly, consumers will refer to inheritance cash advance assignments as inheritance loans, probate loans, or estate loans; however it is important to note the difference – our clients are not borrowing against their inheritance.
