OUR PRODUCTS
Estate Advance
If your client needs to pay Inheritance Tax, repair or renovate a property in the estate, pay legal fees or other estate liabilities, they can access up to 50% of the value of the estate now with Provira.
- Aimed at Executors or Personal Representatives of Estates.
- Can be used to pay IHT or other estate liabilities.
- Available to testate and intestate estates.
- Enables access to up to 50% of the value of the estate within days.
- Applications assessed solely on the value of the estate, not personal circumstances or credit rating.
- No charges over property.
- Advance is repaid to us when the assets from the estate are realised. No monthly fees and no early repayment charges.
- No risk to the borrower. Provided there is no breach of the terms and conditions of the Advance, if it turns out the value of the estate is less than expected then the shortfall will not need to be repaid. We take the risk.
- Simple, straightforward application process.
- The Arrangement Fee (which is simply added to the loan) is 1%-2% of the loan amount. The interest rate is 1.5%-2% per month for as long as the Advance is outstanding.
- Simple Interest not Compound Interest. On an advance of £50,000 repaid after 12 months this results in a saving of £1,440 compared to other providers with the same rates that do charge compound interest. (Assuming 2% arrangement fee and 2% monthly interest.)

What Are The Fees For An Advance?
The Arrangement Fee (which is simply added to the loan) is 1-2% of the loan amount. The interest rate is 1.5-2% per month for as long as the Advance is outstanding.
Crucially, we only charge simple interest rather than compound interest. This means you are not paying interest on the interest. In the example above, this would result in a saving of £1,440 compared to all other providers with the same rates and fees that do charge compound interest.
Representative example
An Advance of £50,000 with an Arrangement Fee of 2% (£1,000) and an Interest rate of 24% (fixed). Interest is calculated on the advance and the fee and accrues daily.
| 12 months | Time to liquidate estate |
| £12,240 | Owed in interest |
| £51,000 | Owed in capital and fees |
| £63,240 | Total balance owed* |

FAQ's
Provira is the largest, longest established lender specialising in inheritance funding in the UK. We proudly collaborate with hundreds of trusted partners—including finance brokers, IFA’s, solicitors, and specialist accountants, —who refer clients seeking an advance on their inheritance or estate during the probate process.
As an FCA-regulated organisation, we are committed to delivering fast, transparent financial solutions, while providing a level of customer care that ensures your clients feel as valued as your own.
Provira offers two core products:
An inheritance advance enables Beneficiaries to access up to 50% of their inheritance, pre-probate, within days, rather than the months typically taken to obtain probate and sell a property.
Estate Advance is aimed at Executors and Personal Representitives of Estates and can be used to pay some or all of the inheritance tax, or any other Estate Liability.
We offer 1% of the value of the loan amount as referral commission. This commission is paid to the introducer the month after the loan is drawdown.
A £50,000 loan will yield a commission of £500 to the introducer.
- Up to 50% of your future inheritance / net value of the estate
- Our Loans are unsecured, we do not take charges over property

- Interest rate of 1.5%-2% per month
- Arrangement fee of 1 – 2%
