As probate application fees are an upfront application fee that must be paid before the executors have access to estate funds, the executors are commonly required to pay this cost out of their own pocket (to be later reimbursed from the estate after probate is obtained and estate monies become available). Should the proposed changes be implemented, this will create a greater financial burden on executors and may even impede executors from being able to administer an estate.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_30038\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30038\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-30038\" src=\"https:\/\/static.timesnewsgroup.com.au\/prod\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/10\/Wills-EstatesPhoto1_37035.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-30038\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The team at Coulter Legal provide their clients with personalised, expert advice when dealing with estate planning.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With the significant increase in the value of properties and the most significant anticipated intergenerational transfer of wealth on the horizon, many &#8220;average&#8221; estates are likely to fall within the category requiring the payment of $7,000 to $15,000 in probate application costs.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst it may be suggested that executors could borrow the funds to pay these fees, it is worth noting that, in accordance with existing estate laws, if an executor takes out a loan to pay the probate fees, they may not be able to recover the cost of the interest from\u00a0the estate.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-30038\" src=\"https:\/\/static.timesnewsgroup.com.au\/prod\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/10\/Wills-EstatesPhoto2_37071.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At Coulter Legal, they can provide clients with personalised, expert advice to ensure the estate will be dealt with in the best way to suit the circumstances, including strategies to deal with these proposed changes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When someone passes away, the people appointed by the will to manage the deceased person&#8217;s affairs (the executors) are often required to apply for a grant of probate or letters of administration.
