Kings Funerals pre-paid consultants Julie Cantwell and Samantha Voyle Hallihan are here to help answer some of your most common questions about pre-paid funerals.<\/p>\n
How do I pre-pay a funeral?<\/p>\n
There are two ways to pre-pay a funeral.<\/p>\n
The first is with a funeral bond where the cost of your funeral is estimated and a lump sum is invested with a funeral fund manager to contribute towards future costs. You can set a target amount and pay in regular or occasional contributions.<\/p>\n
The second option is a pre-paid funeral plan. You decide the details of the funeral service that you want and Kings Funerals guarantees with a written contract to carry out the funeral as arranged, whenever it’s required in years to come. Full payment up front is required and includes a price guarantee fee to lock in today’s prices.<\/p>\n
Is my money safe?<\/p>\n
Yes. In Victoria, pre-paid legislation requires that all funds must be invested with a friendly society. After the initial investment, Kings Funerals cannot get access to the funds until the funeral has taken place.<\/p>\n
How do I benefit from planning ahead?<\/p>\n
The services you pay for today will not attract extra costs when the funeral is needed, which can provide comfort and reassurance for your family.<\/p>\n
The investment can help preserve your pension entitlements, adding to the financial benefits of planning ahead.<\/p>\n
Lastly, you record exactly how to be remembered at the service in your own unique way. Want to talk it through? Kings Funerals are here for you.<\/p>\n
