Though probate aims to protect all involved, waiting many months (or longer) can strain finances—especially if funeral costs, mortgage payments, or other bills are piling up. Rockpoint Probate Funding offers the possibility of an inheritance advance if you qualify. Here’s how it works:
You apply, sharing details about the estate and your expected share.
Rockpoint reviews your situation (no credit checks required), then extends an offer for a portion of your inheritance now.
Once probate concludes, Rockpoint is paid back directly from your share—letting you skip both a protracted wait and the stress of monthly loan bills.
