TUPELO,MS— Heritage Memorial Fund- ing is proud to announce their easiest three- step funding process to date, while still providing the best in–class service funeral directors have come to love. Hertiage is the only family-owned and operated true non- recourse funeral assignment funding com- pany in the industry! “We listened to what our clients had to say about our process, and we found a better way,” said Taylor Main of Heritage Memo- rial Funding. “The Heritage process was al- ready easy, but we weren’t satisfied with the amount of required paperwork our clients had to complete.” By thinking outside of the box, Heritage cut their client’s paper consumption by 40 percent. “The last thing any funeral director wants to do is more paperwork, so we made our process easier and faster,” said Main. This update allows Heritage to be more competitive without reducing the quality of their service or their true non-recourse guar- antee. The newest assignment forms will be made immediately available through their fast and easy-to-use WebApp. Heritage Memorial Funding is a family- owned business with years of financial ser- vices experience. Their service is simple: they offer immediate payment to a funeral home and the deceased’s beneficiaries in exchange for a verified life insurance policy. Instead of waiting months, families and funeral homes have the money from a policy in-hand with- in one or two days, freeing them to pay for the services and other expenses. Heritage handles all the paperwork and negotiations with the insurance company and processes the policy to recoup costs. For policies that exceed the cost of the funeral, families can receive ‘Family Funding’, to pay for what- ever their needs may be beyond the funeral itself.
